the kraken
03:25
|
|||
below the thunders of the upper deep,
(far) far beneath in the abysmal sea,
his ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep
The Kraken sleepeth: faintest sunlights flee
about his shadowy sides; above him swell
huge sponges of millennial growth and height;
and far away into the sickly light,
from many a wondrous grot and secret cell
unnumbered and enormous polypi
winnow with giant arms the slumbering green.
there hath he lain for ages, and will lie
battening upon huge sea worms in his sleep,
until the latter fire shall heat the deep;
then once by man and angels to be seen,
in roaring he shall rise and on the surface die.
- alfred lord tennyson

her sweet weight
03:09
|

her sweet weight on my heart a night
had scarcely deigned to lie —
when, stirring, for belief's delight,
my bride had slipped away —
if 'twas a dream — made solid — just
the heaven to confirm —
or if myself were dreamed of her —
the power to presume —
with him remain — who unto me —
gave — even as to all —
a fiction superseding faith —
by so much — as 'twas real —
- emily dickinson

when god lets my body be
03:42
|
|||
when god lets my body be
from each brave eye shall sprout a tree
fruit that dangles therefrom
the purpled world will dance upon
between my lips which did sing
a rose shall beget the spring
that maidens whom passion wastes
will lay between their little breasts
my strong fingers beneath the snow
into strenuous birds shall go
my love walking in the grass
their wings will touch with her face
and all the while shall my heart be
with the bulge and nuzzle of the sea
- ee cummings

say no to armageddon

say no to armageddon
some day we might get them
i'll be armed to the last minute
and everything but us is shining
ripping through our stomach lining
we'll look up to discover
the truth that revealed itself
a door to someone's heart
opening up somewhere
beyond a gaping monitor
a waterfall of despair
the sweat of god will pour
ceaselessly, ceaselessly
