Our Aging Bodies Have Carried This Disease of Language

from This Disease of Language by Nayru

lyrics

bumping and banging
and tearing and dislodging
and pulling and burning
and starving and missing

The continuity will collapse


Remember
those
four letters?
Carved
into
the skin
of a
dead swan

That never learned
how to fly
It spread
its wings to glide on the materialistic prayers of our race


I’m overjoyed
I’m animated
I’m eager
I’m automated
I’m upset
And that’s okay
Because we all have a lot to be upset about these days


Thoughts that had intentions
Intentions are excuses
Weakness in what was spelled out,
tattooed in red across the ideals of our predecessors

an apparition of stanzas written in other's names


I will continue to shout
in the storm
the bustling world
together with
repleting dissension
full of skin
and ample breath

The headache is being lost
The stomachache is departure
The headache is habituation
The body ache is the fervor
