A Tributary In Servitude 10 Prelude To Tears

The king-on-bundles-of-leaves— daddy of the threshold of grace my 'kerchief is minted in its pack I will need it later for my blood.

We all are busy shouting we all are busy swearing

reeking still as if in fettered silence— our fate as a surging tide.

Commission an image they will build a shrine summon to fiesta

and knot a lineage.

Show a line of puzzle they will spill some blood gather their fears

they will spill some blood.

O father, do not stop me let me wipe my tears with dry-dead-leaves

There are no bandages in here 'kerchief I will need you later for my blood

I will need you later for my blood…
