Draw the knife straight through the bread
Pull from the hips
Watch baby’s head
Flour and water
Flesh and blood
Bake me another one if I could
Firstborn child crying upstairs
Can’t control how much he cares
Salt and water
Bath and bone
Pull him down
Prostrate the throne
Drink a beer from a tall thin glass
Watch the rain on windswept grass
Days I think
We’ll be alright
Nights I fear
The extinguished light
Soft as dawn is baby’s skin
Sharp as shivs the teeth come in
Downy downy
Smooth as sin
I push you out
You pull me in
Hallelujah
This glorious din
I push you out
You pull me in
