Testo Mombasa

Testo Mombasa

Stranded naked on the sandbar, echoed from the stars
Neon sea snake, cemetery roaming under dusk

Doberman visions
You're undressing
Mute and bleary

Hillside castles baking down to sand

Shamed red Chopin plays awful sounds from the dresser
Nurses hands carving in slate, hummingbird gestures

Sleeping in nectar
Teething on freedom

The hospital bed filled with your apathy
In a haze of heat, a father hums his tragic song
Before the cold sees its ceremony in your icy eyes, the daybreak glance given

Travel now
Where they can't let you down
Where you can't fail them now
