heaven is a void between load screens (my big break 2020 - 2022)
- rippling and citrusy
- the less of it
- hands at ten and two
- heaven is a void between load screens
- sound of ice, sound of crows, sound of toads, delightful
- against a miraculous backdrop
- criss cross applesauce, right in the stream of the amp
- surreal, heat-bent summer
- walls are humming
- secret dark art happening
- paint thinner punch from a styrofoam cup
- I wanna damage a windshield in the parking lot
- dancing bodies would vanish
- drink straight from the champagne fountain, yes, now, and more
- with just the faintest lick of flame
- last night I dreamed of partying
jesus was a slot machine
- the wobble of the speakers kicks up the ancient dust
- i’m pushing my body to sin faster
- hooting, goofy and spectacular
- sibilants hissing in the speakers
- a devil’s bloody hoof print
- awash in my terrible ripples
- you are your own extractor
- i felt the cool wind of a million doors opening
- oh, today you are the cool guy
- how profound our loudest errors
- you can’t grasp the past, brother
- jesus was a slot machine
