Green widow

 


The green widow sings in her cave

in the shadow of a pocket watch

between the pines lurks a mutt

the hands of the watch loosen

and collect pollen dust

voices are heard from all needles

more dry and perfurmed than each single one

and the sun shoots a cold ear in

dogs howl louder than spine

the bark rattles desert ears

soon the rain will come

soon the rain will come

and the law of ears will be folded behind glass

the dentures turn needles into nuns

sleep wakes up calibrated

here she lies in her cave

here she lies in her cave

even the devil must curse the hospital's smolder

the cave coughs the rain a rudder

sneeze knows us from coast to coast

find the key of time in low cast minor

the monster rises with silky many volts

water is coming out of all nail holes

and in the shadow of your pocket watch

the green widow sings in her cave

the green widow sings in her cave.
