Sacred Vase from Blood Pheasant by FEASTofFETUS

Lyrics

the radiance of a thousand suns
had burst at once into the sky
to melt the desert beneath my feet
and form the vase where your stem would drink

and as you sat up in your throne of glass
your life prolonged as the years passed
exalted by my ritual mass
a rose whose beauty couldn’t last

a cut flower that has opened so wide
has nothing left to do but die
the petals drop like blood red rain
until not a one of them remains

too close to the edge of the pedestal
oppenheimer’s child made it finally fall
reduced to sand, smashed upon the floor
i’m not writing songs about you anymore

straighten knees
bent so long
agony
and relief
