lyrics

i called you, down
are you there?
down through the false god-god
down through the demigod-god gods
a dead line – like you aborted the world

earth from confusion
water from terror
air from grief

and all i know is the vacancy
between my hands and my mouth

you know what that’s like?

that effort always before me
it’s merciless waste

no you

the only thing preceding me
is my hunger

now more and more
now more and more

and so now what
i’m supposed to fucking love myself?

…………

like i don’t like kissing much, sustained
like i’m hungry much, and unhappy
in that narrow attention
that slips
between

breath against skin

no
no you
show me

breath against skin

flesh of the world
flesh of the world that i hate

i know, those who feel pain need to be right
and i know, i feel pain because i need to be right
but not you, flesh of the world
no punishment for recursive sex

all my modular lovers, of flesh
a narrow attention
deconstructed
permission to become
deconstructed
permission to become
ruthless objects

Ox Hunger Portland, Oregon

An experiment in post-industrial doom charting the dynamic between raw horror and breathless desperation at the site of the body, reeling through dirge to brutalist dance music, pulling structure out of noise.
