Your Veins Use Up All the Red in the World


How strange and wild you look!  please
Give me an apple why don’t you give
Me Karen Carpenter all hopped up
On Sonic Youth baby baby baby O baby
I really do wish you’d leave twenty dollars
Between all my pages but don't leave
My tongue tied to your velvet fate
O velveteen stop breaking my book spines
Stop dancing the cluttered music's done
If you discard me I’ll part night’s dark hairs
With my voice O ain’t it funny how strange
And wild things can look sometimes
The sun leaves us wide-eyed and alone
Our tongues behung with sweet fetid songs
