I can’t remember coming back I lost corvus hydra and crater to that noise that made the mesa crack I passed myself as I returned Reckoned dead between the nodes all light that noise broke hypno vision learned I’ll be the carbon in the peregrine Guide by vibration while the system spins I’ll be the iron that runs beneath the skin Guide by vibration end more waves begin
2.
Read the stress across the ground Read the gradient while peregrine stalks swallow Feel the clouds spiral down Soon stars will silhouette the sound the fail to follow Conspire with drafts that suspend hail Wade through the ancient clonal colonies of creosote Relieved of all sense by the trail Plain heaves with reason killing resonance at soundless notes From mule ears to elephant tusk Weave lines through lechuguilla while rain explodes and dissipates Weight guides my head back to the dust Refuge from memory united particles negate Unimaginable din as waves travel through stone Path staggered to show the landscape to the bone Borrowed iron to return the charges are reset Unimaginable din the existential debt
3.
The sun rose right but could not set Flag while the sick herd staggers Rock spires block starlight’s final stretch Crawl to the shade collapse and wretch The moon rose wrong and could not last Faint wake of mispositioned stone Stars blaze so hard the sun was finally outshone
4.
Current stunts reason here Resonance weak but forever Core to ionosphere The fundamental phrases fear that seven point eight three trough chafes the tether Revealed but far from clear Dissonance leaks through weathered paths in mountain’s canted strata Core to ionosphere Transmitted upwards as the star storm distorts now from never

The Trail 05:37
The flies still hiss Vultures sail through the pressure Hysteric bliss Rent veins collapse I’ll be my own successor Torn tendon snaps Was meant for this The whole reclaims the lesser Heartworn abyss Inverted mountain towers down to sinusoidal blackness Hold the course as the immense living absence advances Compelled to comprehend more eyes roll back into the slackness Absorbing light euphoric shade drones in harmonic chances Sound to stagger grounded static surges towards conclusion Count phalangeal twelve and blindly march through the occlusions Hear the rocks move hear the weight the crushing iridescence Thoughts return reversed elated stellar luminescence The trail the trial to fail that mile that vibrates final mandate The trail the endless file that strings life geologic death weight The trail the trail that assails will to restore the four the eight That trial that trail stop counting thought sound vision tensional gait
