BENEATH

My head's a bloody field
Of dead and half alive
My eyes full-shock blown open
Dark circles to arrive

And muddy earth is rising
Her mother to unwind
Fisted, white flags waving
On winds that blew my mind

Cut and feet are bleeding
The road from there to here
Shortcuts through the basement
Took to disappear

And black cloud ride a roof-top
The wet of days gone by
No more leather learners
There's nothing left to dry
