on the evening of the dust
we set afloat our dead
the water tugged at your hair
and the river took you home
illuminate
my compound eyes
and
shine my carapace
descend lickspittle overmen
with rickets in their bones
ether in their chests
and verses of the tongue
indifferent as the stones
indifferent as the sun
ocean beats
the rhythm i need to breathe
ebb and tide
marching leg flute time
she hatched her babies inside a host
with a skin to beat and a wrist to flick
descend yesman underlings
hands into the pockets of the dead
blessings of a kingly king
bellies in the dirt
thumb-screw ties
the one-eyed and the blind
while a black maria keeps
a cure
beneath her feet
but herod and the monkey men
tied a noose of golden trim
my coward son came home a sage
with concubines.
and pineal eyes.

lady of the wheel
mistress with a skin to wear
intestines on the left
coinage on the side
and jimson of the weeds
with logic up her sleeves
feral siblings in a neck of the woods
mother's eyes from a hutch the woods
a brother with the shape of my son
become a home to the insects
sexless vessels become us
constellations sighed
apparatus fuckingly sublime
jack of spades
had a rib to spare
bifurcaria
bifurcata
the plants accept my gift
a cudgel to the knees.
monthly moons to count
cavities to mount
itch of the ants
on the palms of my hands
strangers and cowards
in back wards with reptiles
and black lights that throb knowingly

lizzard with the sight
told tales to its kind
memorise
the patterns on your side
opening the mouth had
yellow ribbons tied
weigh that phantom limb
mementos of
archipelagos
leave
a self
for a foot of clubs
the vestigial
for the unperishable
in my mouth i keep a fare
but my hands hold on to all that's new
and on the morning of the stars
i climb outside and grasp the night
old skin shed
in dawn of light

Vicious, sharp album that whacks you down with it's million accurate knife stabs. It packs such unexplained concentrated heaviness inside that it's not even funny. This record will swipe your smile off and take the command inside your brains. Unique and marvelous record that is hard to unwrap. It just works perfectly.

Esoteric Malacology
by Slugdge
supported by 63 fans who also own “Bifurcaria Bifurcata”
Riffladen and multilayered to the extreme. The sort of album where you are drifting on surprisingly ethereal melodies one minute and head thumping, brain smushing riffs the next. Strong vocals and varied songs round out this gooey slug of a glorious album.
