The Enormous Cosmos (in the cavity of the mouth) Lyrics

center of my chest
a cavity opens, bursting

gnashing teeth, nascent tongue
clutching at unpronounceable self

the abyssal "I"
the burning "am"

laminae of gases expand in
the enormous cosmos in
the cavity of the mouth

the abyssal "I"
the burning "am"
condensing into an astral arrow

lungs pregnant with impalpable truth, I fall to my knees
and from my center bursts a barbed vowel

arcing toward the gorge of fate

body tearing itself apart under pressure
as the mouth screams
my name, my name, my name, my name

body topples, sublimates,
spirals toward the veins of the rising sun
