lyrics
tracks: faded lastings of what was;
the leftbehindings (dulled in dust)
entrusting traces of the past.
i: a careful collection of what’s been;
fortunes, faults and failings sew the seams,
convene and, inwardly, collide.
molecular matters, bound in instancemade are we
settled dust in dislocated euphony?
once upon the evergrowing
(formed from fractured toandfroing)
is the bloom of dailymercies new.
allatonce in neverknowing,
slow as seeds, become their sowing
all imbued with every was in view.
tracks, constructing constellations (of a sort).
laid by patient plotting, all the more,
the course liberally held fast.
we, all of particles and parts;
a motley menagerie of stars
is ours in conglomerate syncope.
molecular matters, bound in instancemade are we
settled dust in dislocated euphony?
once upon the evergrowing
(formed from fractured toandfroing)
is the bloom of dailymercies new.
allatonce in neverknowing,
slow as seeds, become their sowing
all imbued with every was in view.
