Abba Amma (Babylon Destroyer) |
I wasn’t sure |
As the sky was toffee |
Feeding birds |
To the horses |
Killing the clouds |
And I cut off my face |
And made skittles |
With its teeth |
I ate the graveyard whole |
And holes open like candles becoming dogs |
Well there are |
Bluebirds |
Blackbirds |
Deadbirds |
Totembirds |
Baked in pies and praying to die |
I made them rise |
From their pies |
And married the moon |
And killed my face |
And threw its quincunx into space |
The cats are like furry constellations |
They lap up the Milky Way |
Speak tongues with windows open |
In the fabric skulls |
We wear like bonnets |
To cover up our empty eyes |
Behind such emptied eyes |
The everything bubbles and laughs |
No empty sketch |
But quite as vast as children’s dreams |
Who sleep outside of manmade cogs |
No barking disturbs the sketch of Kosmoi yet to come |
Ⲁⲃⲃⲁ ⲁⲙⲙⲁ, Babylon Destroyer |
King of dust I swept up |
With pan and brush |
In a rush whilst the berries explode |
