A Mirror in My Mouth
I'm a house of bones
Skin stretched over walls
A mirror in my mouth

Let your golden rays
Hit my frozen face
A cataract of sound

Let your honey drip
From your fingertips
O let me have your lips

Your lips of gold, of gold
Of whispering the lips, the lips, the lips

My gaze spills your blood through the body
Each drop makes a coral in the sea
My skin was forged out of seaweed

And out of spit my children grow
Out of spit my children grow
Churning in my mouth, in my mouth
