about

Dedicated to the great trees of New Orleans, and in humble honor of the one and only Takashi Mizutani.

lyrics

concrete slab
shears off rain
like a fist
on your throat
like a boot
on your neck
i'm sorry
to great oaks

it's so sobering
the pressure on the roots
it's so sobering
the pressure on the roots

---------------------------------

My heart is a pile of dead things wrapped in sinew;
She plays with the sun.
I wish my cup were big enough
To water everything I meet,
But it's barely big enough for two ounces of liqueur.

The trees here hang in sweet pantomimes of weeping
We were meant to find what we loved
And let it kill us slowly
But we're killing it instead.
