an enchanted cleansing lightness

from god of death by bly wallentine

lyrics

in the nodules that invade my lifeline when i am bent for air
there is a liquid and a livid humming

though the nodules do recede, yet there are scratch marks on their walls
and there are blood stains from desperate drumming

sometimes late at night when space is shallow and time is thick
i am visited by a shadow wearing a stethoscope

who, with a dissolute hand upon my chest
can sense the presence of two submarines devoid of periscopes

and when I turn to leave i find that I've already left
and there are splinters of my self in every corner of my vision like a kaleidoscope

if only i could sink into an enchanted cleansing lightness
oh, how i wish that that were so
