On Pedestrian Wolves

by Osiris Saline

/
1.
Covet the night The ground so often walked Contend with the avarice On the moonlight drive Drop the breadcrumbs The former greeds Tied with the finest thoughts The something in between The scratch, the claw The bite, no more The loss, the loss The loss, this loss The rain drops, the dew The ether on the grass The dawn, what's more Once more, once more Twisting ourselves, sinewy pretzels, bound by the obligation of moonlit transmogrification A lavish evocation of memories now gone, shown through an evening in the milieu of dying stars

Industry Turned itself All its living parts Inside to out A sacrifice for all A bleating, ravenous deity Changed all it touched Scrawled all a contract death Witnesses a fall Are we all Drops in the oceans That ever expand Witness from afar Decisions graphed through scars A frail imitation Of what once was It's all wrong, it's all wrong It's all wrong is this song As we step down the stairs Wash the puddles with nightmares Fetch the mop, sink the bleach Wash up on the beach And hide from hate crimes Witnessed in wolves lifetimes Let it burn Let it burn [They wiggle and they squirm] They let it burn They let it burn [Final trees! Those feeble ferns!] They knew it all They knew it all [They planned the profit and the fall] It's all they know It's all they know [Another aspirational apocalypse]

In Absentia 03:36
Many years ago [Between Denbigh & Wrecsam] There lived a wolf-man [Iechyd da, he said to us] We will wait Forever in your wake Bring us the wisdom In Absentia Then away to Paris [No one knew] Quite how long they'd be [Hwyl a nos da] Broke the pact And yet we remain Drown all our sorrows In the latest ship-less bottle A decade is the same as nine And a century has passed our call
