At the crossroads of my lips

where truth meets fiction, where the city ends and wilderness begins, a child rides a bullet bareback.

She hops off before the bitter end to stop death in its tracks.

Lyric, lullaby, lament.

A song can be carved from stone, river, or wind.

A fist and a heart can fit into the same size clothes; it all depends if you’re going to a wedding or a war zone.

Ashes to passion, dust to desire.

Keep my casket open when I die. Nightmare gallows are no match for these singing bones.
