hold on hold on

let it sink in

deepen

pull you down

to the very core

of the earth

I taste it now

bitter somehow

and within the air it rings

underground

we dont hear these things

grapes to wine

wine to tongue

and still I feel it

the dirt filling my lungs

plate tectonics

have nothing on us

they shake the earth

but you destroy my world
