you wanna talk the erosion of privacy?
any hill goes, you're bound to find some bones in there.
the holy mountain of the separate self
falls into ocean like an ice shelf.
none of it comes with any anomie,
a bloom of novelty and sunlight, not enemies.
but as our skeletons become transparent
we would be scared if we weren't sharing it.

out beyond the breakers and the noise
the body's still coherent
spread through though it be
into the web of light that shines between us.
everything ignites and ancient fire
behind our eyes, it binds us.
but even in the city, girls and boys
are constantly suspended,
only in a soup of human nature
tamed and disassembled,
as the fires inside us are
externalized and then extended.
i want to live where there's no signal.
even as it makes us, it destroys.
the gods are all prosthetic,
high on death denial
but still corporeal and pathetic,
animals and angels making love
always allopoeitic.
but even in our detriment
we're poised to grow beyond these fetters,
luciferic wildness spreading wings
in the domesticate
to love the world entire
and as brightly as we were intended.
i want to live where there's no signal.
gone, gone, i don't recognize you anymore.
so long to everything that's come before.
i know all songs are reborn into a wider score.
but i try to hide my eyes from all that lies in store.
i want to live where there's no signal.
