You can get it wrong, at 1 a.m. If you listen to the whispers of the blue smoke. Intentional bruises sneak in between the thunder and we build our altar on the ashes of tradition. Now. you are My sugar. The drums and whistles of our dead keep rhythm as we dance alone in the cold of our Great Nothing. You can get it wrong at 1a.m. If you wait for the smoke to clear.

Lessons in the night of pale skin and riding crops
You can get it wrong, at 1 a.m. If you listen to the whispers of the blue smoke. Intentional bruises sneak in between the thunder and we build our altar on the ashes of tradition. Now. you are My sugar. The drums and whistles of our dead keep rhythm as we dance alone in the cold of our Great Nothing. You can get it wrong at 1a.m. If you wait for the smoke to clear.
