To honour the kill is to use every part of the prize
We’ll spill offal, throw to the ground to sustain the wolf
Sharpen ribs, to blade to perpetuate the hunt and return
Tan the skin, create a sheath and dress my blade
Tendon and sinew
Bind razor’d bone to leather
Grasp digging through the carcass
Clots cling and discolour my hands
The goal, the heart
I’ll wear the colour till end task done
Full lungs, iron taste gags in throat
Lacquer the heart
Mount it on rosewood
On the cold ground where your body lays
Where the dead feet walk, to an open grave,
There’s a silence here, you cannot mistake
At an ending now, only i’ll dictate
Collect my spirit wives, for the afterlife,
Inside it was ashes, feel your body burn,
Hunter of the masses, point of no return,
Strangulation hold, as you’re disembowelled.
Night came down, sudden there’s a rip
Night came down, the trees shake, my mind aches, so guilty yet barren and clear
It’s not enough to eat her, consume him, absorb them and make them my whole
I must find a place now for bone dust, for clothing, possessions and fragments of skull
I cut you into pieces
I swallow you with salt
Like stones in the river
I sink to the floor
I flow, I flow, I flow
Drained of blood
Precious holy water
Unclean, unclean, unclean
Calculated cruelty
Your head again I struck
Tongue against the sacred
And fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck
Lift me out of this shit life
Into the shade of the forest
MANIPULATION DOMINATION CONTROL
The kill, the vomit
The blade, the butcher
The honour is to display
Choke back, the gagging
The spit floods the maw
This is more than me
I am not afraid
I am not ashamed
You are honoured
Hang the trophy high
Revere its violence
It is tribute, it is death
The remembrance known only to us
Its mark, eternal
Returning to where my hunt bled out
Scabs and bile and remnants of limb
Decay and sweetly perfumed feeding the earth
Anew fungus fills the wooded carpet
Spores in my lungs
Auroras in eyes
I am not afraid
I am not ashamed
You are honoured

No aims
No loves
As the dawn washes the land
Waters carry shining sand
No aims
No loves
Draw them in and embrace to thee
Incise next to tail
Lay them down
Guide them home
Become solitary
A brightened land holds no place for me
Feel the pull of the whole
Fake the grin
Fake the laugh
Mimic empathy
No aims
No loves
I thirst
I thirst
I thirst
Cull
Bleed an ocean
Spill out the scent and let the old rot run free
Flay
Tear it open
Rip off the dressing
Watch it piss out a sea

Never knew you dad
What was worth knowing?
Re-rolling your cigarettes?
Sucking and blowing?
We were so dumb
Time just hung
Deep in my breath
A firebird formed
I’ve been down here so long
Searching for fruit to grow strong
Meat in my lungs
Meat in my mouth
Smother my scream
Cut out my shout
Throw my whole world open
Fill my mind with doubt
The constant hope that the storm will weather me
Don't let me fade
Let me shout
