Retracted are these tendons - Resolved on remaining in their calcified cages; When breath arrives, it is blown back And when warmth envelopes, it is posted away promptly. Seeking only that which is ineffectual - Side-tracking all traumatic pain For the comfort of the constant daily struggle. Speaking only to the bleak and familiar In colours reddish and blue to the coloured lens above its eyes; A body of uncomfortable comfort and avoidant pleasure Sits upon its earthly thrown and ponders - Ponders all that it will reject today and the day after.

2013 - Present
Retracted are these tendons - Resolved on remaining in their calcified cages; When breath arrives, it is blown back And when warmth envelopes, it is posted away promptly. Seeking only that which is ineffectual - Side-tracking all traumatic pain For the comfort of the constant daily struggle. Speaking only to the bleak and familiar In colours reddish and blue to the coloured lens above its eyes; A body of uncomfortable comfort and avoidant pleasure Sits upon its earthly thrown and ponders - Ponders all that it will reject today and the day after.
