TANE MAHUTA detail L.A. Maihi 2010 |
mind slowly landslide
slippery slope of diatribe
sanity polarity of pride
never the twain towers
between salty sweet sours
heady smell deadhead flowers
undersell these dark hours
carrying what can't be held
deathly vodoo charmed spells
twisted tails of jackal shells
shade of night driniking well
feel the taste of those unreal
why do we sell this dirty deal
when all around is political spiel
and nothing is as nothing real
so tiptoe across the street
from underneath I delete
and struggle over black sleet
to drown under your heartbeat
darkness descends on head
lay the bones upon a bed
of rose-skin apple red
hold onto what once was dead...
L.A. Maihi
