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

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

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

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

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
