Leave me alone
I screamed it into the night

Leave me alone
I cried it into my pillows

Leave me alone
I begged it into the dark

Leave me alone

So they did

They left me alone
Truth is volatile,

you see it half appearing –


half disappearing.
"DΓ©tective" (1985, Jean-Luc Godard)

Collection "Held True"
for my wicked ways
let not Your wrath befall me;
lest eternal death
pour fire on my hands just to see if I burn
cut rubies from my flesh just to make sure I bleed
because though I've a heartbeat beating on
I'm not sure I'm alive just because that I breathe
