Spook in the Woods

from MUTATIS MUTANDIS by Construction & Destruction

/

lyrics

Is it all of your own making?
Is it by design?
Will ham-fisting your heart
really make it start?

Will levelling the new shoots help?
Aren’t the care-takers friendly?

You are the one weeping.
You are the spook in the woods.
Yours are the feverish eyes.
Little radical, it’s you who cries

when you cannot get the leech off
without salt,
or fire.
When you learn it does not burrow
out of love,
but survival.

But you are not there yet.
You are deep in the woods,
in a house made of hide,
lit from within.

You are desperate for wisdom.

What prowls the perimeter?
What noses the wind?
What stops, stalk-still,
ancient and grim?

What must you keep from getting in?
Who must you not let in?
