lyrics

Our bodies stitch seams across the park
Caressing living stones
Prehistoric mosses and lichens

Catching a breath of a white blue cloud
Passing over umber grasses and ferns
Antlers and hoofs

Watching
Listening to the air
Tumulus hillocks roll unto the head
Where the azure bullets rest
Buried from wartime

Sea monster
Oceans of deep roots
Wild tentacles flail about
Broken bark crumbles down

Where the faeries dwell underneath toadstools
Of unfathomable post box red
The green and the grey

Dying to be birthed again
From the womb of Old John
