Hiss

Tear the sky inside-out
Spill the stars from my mouth
Wear the points
At 3 and 9
And rub the ash
Across my eyes

At times, hiss
As serpent, I
Hiss out
The missing light

Unlock my horns, head to head
Untie my tail from the bed
Break your teeth up into flesh
Soft as gold and hold my breath

At times, hiss
As serpent, I
Hiss out
The missing light

The missing light

At times, hiss
As serpent, I
Hiss out
The missing light
At times, hiss
As serpent, I
Inside-out
And hissing light
And hissing light
