lyrics

A dead child, a drowned child,
chillblains, wet stones,
slow canal, dead water -
are called forth:

Come forth.

Enter this room and stand.

You fell from the bridge into the darkness of the water.

And you will make us see
with eyes of moss;
bruised black and tossed,
raincloud and silt,
by this coprolith they built.

Ghosts are in the mouth.
Dreams are in the mouth.
So stand in this room.

And you will draw near,
as ectoplasm
over our face,
as a piano key
striking suddenly.

The discarded boy,
so much refuse
in the slimy river -
is called forth, come forth.

They shot the husband.
They shot his wife.
They shot the roses.
Ghosts are in the mouth.
