Lilac, Lichen, Lily Bones

from Ecstatic Haze by Luna Moth

/

lyrics

Pinecone cheekbones chiseled from limestone, whose ice slopes descend into silence of wise old weeping willows, withered, hollow, bent down with disease that will soon turn them yellow.

Roly poly, strolling slowly, the centuries swell in your belly like berries. Holy oak tree, smoldering stoically, the smoke from your canopy fills my lungs with centipedes.

While walking down the coastline of the green flourescent sea, I met Grandmother Spider there, and this is what she said to me: "Weave your own folklore and weep the length of shore. Leap along beyond your sphere of spores." Lilacs for snoulder blades and lichen for toes. My finger vines wrap round your lily bones.

Sparrow, swallow, vireo, oriole, your birdsongs descend from the divine throne of Juno.
Federico, Pablo, Stremlow, your words turn vertiginous blood into rooibos.
