we walk the paths to infinity

the city sings tonight, swansong soft. the mermaids sing, each to each, but they do not sing for me

shall we dance?

please mind the step and watch your h e a d

mary, mary, quite contrary
how does your garden grow
with sticks and stones and broken bones
two by two they go

his head cracked open and the world spilled out

all the king's horses and all the king's men

and it breaks and it breaks and it breaks

nothing will ever be the same again
