Foreign Born 06:37
Torn between places 
Foreign born Half-belonging spaces Which nest to call home? What ground to return?
 Language to learn? Cultures to discern? Leave clothes unworn Growing taciturn Doubled concern Identity to yearn All and nothing Torn between places
 Foreign born Half-belonging spaces

Life’s just an instant in this world. Like meteoric impact the tip is curled. To let it crumble, to leave it die another planet to deify. Unfeigned outline hides behind a sardonic veil. Vital condition’s an odd symmetry Loss on ignition to follow wilfully “A new ignorance is on the horizon, an ignorance borne not of a lack of knowledge but of too much knowledge, too much data, too many theories, too little time.” Reiteration uncompelled in thin section magnified spell. Quenched upheaval blight thought evil. “The question that runs through these disputatio is the following: What if “horror” has less to do with a fear of death, and more to do with the dread of life?” “The more we learn about the planet, the stranger it becomes to us.” Are you scared? To unveil what’s behind? Are you afraid to open your mind’s eye?

Look Up 03:52
Compelled, can’t look away
Enthralled, magnetic display Allure, illusion to endure Cyclical spell, beyond to dwell Full moon, feel the pull Answer the call, retrieval The supernatural flows into the natural Viscous seclusion of the world Look up to a circle from life to tides Continues to provide in symbolic abide You’re either in or you’re out Setting up boundaries it’s what this is about Confining stance lift up your glance Touching edges, it begins where it ends The circle is about to close

Wrought 04:26
Mind flows towards warm thoughts Conceal to hole up, deceive to push off Building up walls chitinous armours Cheating yourself, exoskeleton downfall Made up excuse molded in your shape Pouring your flaws to seal them away Withhold reliance Habit to break Lack of defiance Narcotic’s wake Hide out for feelings Palliative believings Stopgap measures cloudy den for treasures ticking away time leaving sedimented grime Wrought from stone Stubborn leftover bone

Bichos Raros 02:44
A veces cuando, algo te falta Se despierta en ti, la supervivencia Sin ojos sin manos, ni una medalla Veràs mas lejos, y lucharàs mejor en batalla “Asquerosos engendros” Desechados recuerdos Mi actitud no pierdo Sin dientes te muerdo El ego tan grande les hace creer Que nos atraen como parasitos Ustedes se pintan de alto copete Nosotros quedamos seres humanos Alejate ti, no me alejes a mi Nunca somos solos, hay mas espacio donde hay Bichos raros 
Racional paros Juntos, cercanos ningùn juicio mediano Ser atrevido Es mas caro “Asquerosos engendros” Desechados recuerdos Mi actitud no pierdo Sin dientes te muerdo

Yellowcake 04:29
Mobile, dissolved in water, leached out Crushed Gyre Through mill and fire Pulped ore acid leach Dry, filter dark reach Powder concentrate Perpetual decay Half life suitable From depleted to enriched Energy feast that slowly emits Consume rods Power plant feeds Fuel for power and fuel for more Pull out, extract, remove, dig up
