Moving out into endless night
The evening clothes an enthusiastic sky
Only day lets mistakes be made
Only day lights the lily’s stain
Chase me into anonymity
Come, chase me to a new abject perfection
And we exchange through the same ratios of domination
In every setting we’re still as stations
I am a master and I am a slave
My thirst is smothered under the heaviest wave
The head’s house is built several streets away from the heart’s favela
With a view skewed by its own empire
And you hurt me because you can’t see me
Where’s the sky under night?
