i pity you who hardly knows silence or darkness in their purity nor the effect of a solitary light, or a distant cry can you hear it? the big bell which is hideous to hear, and never stops ringing enrapturing fugue, the first to strike the eye rip off the arms. tear off the limbs break the branches and sing two hymns overripe, overstrung fruit of the ash hear the drum without hands, without feet ash tree throne makes your seat rip off the arms, tear off the limbs break the branches and sing two hymns overripe, overstrung split the lip and cut out the tongue we bore him up, we bore on down we bore him into an orchard brown rip off the arms, tear off the limbs break the branches and sing two hymns overripe, overstrung vent the spleen and pluck a branch of the lung insert the branch up to the bend seven inches of my master in his den rip off the arms. tear off the limbs break the branches and sing two hymns overripe, overstrung fruit of the ash hear the drum

grey women armed with ashes and stone cowslip this lock devour thine eyes fruit of the ash rise and fall lepers sound their rattles rise and fall kiss me red noses putrid cries pregnant and crude summer of lies midsummer men divine my sweetheart bladder of the swine devour thine eyes fruit of the ash rise and fall

listen sea, listen earth listen great ocean shore listen man, listen beast listen all that dwell beneath the sun should i cease to sing? so much desire weep great tears from my eyes so much desire distress torments me so much desire i'm smothered by my dying breath so much desire tired of my pitiful life so much desire so much desiring of death so much desire abandon light from my eyes so much desire death with your arrow you slay so much desire watch the tides, the days are long so much desire when will i lie beneath a stone? so much desire count the moons, each heart beat so much desire welcoming our Lady of Sighs so much desire to be buried, I've never yearned so much desire but by chance we could mingle in the earth so much desire we won't see each other in heaven so much desire at least we could become the same dirt so much desire earth and sea do groan so much desire piercing cries and laments so much desire screeching beast and man as one so much desire every light is banished hence so much desire so much desire night and day raves and moans hot tears of great devotion night and day raves and moans red countess she dotes on grief gold spurs left on the feet of the beheaded red countess she dotes on grief night and day raves and moans bells ring in the silent air night and day raves and moans all shall fail, your youth shall wither neither king nor queen shall avoid the stain death holds the reigns i find your face terribly changed bells ring in the silent air

no, don't keep closed the doors of night blind thirst, two limbs of sight trace the shadow to regain sight barren veil sits on your chest at night whispers with words like lizards organs for voice and respiration the dancer threw herself through glass vessel for other horrors when your eye is still your vision goes black behind this rood screen binding wound i am night i am night i am night i am light vessel for other horrors when your eye is still your vision goes black shadow on the eye, looking through a fog blind thirst, two limbs of sight the purple skin and the worm here red countess, keyhole eye barren veil barren veil barren veil barren veil my weight on your chest steals your breath at night
5.
they are here, they will come behold the day, that detested day when the heavens will flee sun grow red, moon put to flight stars fall to earth, wretched, wretched life when the heavens will flee
6.
make an oak sweat, make an oak sweat humiliation, is it a means or an end? the hoariest of old goats, are roused to lust rise, make it rise, clenched within your thighs silence below, desire is not your own you sweat and crack, break your mothers back like a dog missing a limb, covered by the same skin the skin of the soul, the bull always loses silence below, desire is not your own silence below
7.
should you miss me on the day you miss me you'll go crazy, you'll go crazy like a horse without reigns like a horse without reigns carrion man, carrion man, carrion man.... they throw their heads back, lolling their tounges they throw their heads back, around in their heads to the moon, like the clapper in the bell to the moon, every mouth is wide open and scream with throats, frozen into an O and scream with throats, open to the gullet open to the gullet father of fear . when you shiver like someone just walked on your grave that's the father of skins i've got you under my skin
8.
when i come to die i ask you one favor with the braids of your black hair, they tie my hands when i come to die i ask you one favor with the lashes of your eyes you comb my hair when i come to die i ask you one favor bury me in a box wrapped of your bones
