"Blue Pearl" from Zigzag Wombat EP by Foyer Red Music video by Mitchell Myers https://mitch-myers.com/ BLUE PEARL bumping along the luggage carousel who’s going to claim me? and carry me home? these swollen things can’t carry me for long webs of lies support my thighs those same knobs i bruised and stained when i was half my mind wanting to pick up the pace spent the last five getting lapped lately been bent out of shape with knees a-knockin’, one deep breath smile, nod, wave, repeat (again) “slow and steady wins the race” never could take that advice not when there’s pills there to take america’s always on grind grinding my cartilage i’ve been running in place hitting the treadmill tonight if my hair were to have grayed wouldn’t know under the dye i want a cure for my blues i want peace of mind find zen like yves klein adjust my lenses maggie nelson i want knees that bend when i choose mine are clunky bony, frumpy unruly nubbins stiff as onions wear and tear, pressure, ensuing bruises will not thwart me shove your warnings here’s my body where’s my money one day i’ll save for sulfate free shampoos a 401(k) an ornate wedding i’m but a cog in the system please find your way down to baggage claim i need to be claimed but without all of the baggage insidious spinsters wove all these lipids into my bones constantly capsizing we’ve reached maximum capacity won’t you carry me home? barnacled bubbly big bloody blisters snapped slapped silly stepped on by the misters constantly capsize when i play twister not a comfortable cavern contrarily a cistern you never know what these insidious spinsters wove into your limbs water gives me wings otherwise i go on wounded
