Valery Gore To Feel How This Feels
How finer the days goHow purple the numbness of these
things get
I'm running up on fire
I'm water to all things that used to burn
Old body goes back, lips turn to blue
Spitting out secrets in the mail room
You'll only know dear, you'll only see that
Blindness that covered belief
Hold there
Let me see into you
Old dazzled boots
A throwaway storm
This wind through your teeth to keep you warm
Now I find a yearning
So small like a seed
Spread life through the dead of a killing spree
And beauty's the word dear
To find in your keep
My homeness settled you to sleep
You'll only know dear
You'll only see that
Blindness that covered belief
