leviathan (extended mix)

there's this mountain
driving up from 
the sea floor

i never know 
exactly where
to put it

shorelines 
beachheads
drown in my foam

rocks dance and thrust
undulating
til they're sand

preservation
in the face of
disaster

subdivision
of time and of
newborn crust

freshly aware
of the process
confusion
overwhelms me
while i try to
sleep close in

illiterate
in this language
i hang my
head in disgust
or is this just
orange rust

divide us
poseidon
conquer us

summon all your 
great blue green beasts
saline dad
and swallow up
the wasted 
confetti of
democratic heart

through great caged teeth
our intentions
dead and alive
swim down into
the basking belly

my romance is merely
plankton for the ages
