lyrics

easter traffic
stalls outside family planning
foreheads rattling
red dots marking old appointments, gleaming, cracking
like a row of shrines rusting on the timeline

spun out in shanghai
sneaking into hotel pools at night
suspended in chlorine
wet towels dripping dry
draped across the timeline
the last leaves on the last vine

well, does it help to call it clean?
see the river bed, the silver tree
i don't know if it's enough

see the empty fields yellowing
see the bloody mouth left to bleed
i don't know if it's enough
