lyrics

I am a red fleshy newborn
in a room of strangers I can't identify,
held by the arms of a mannequin,
a woman from the window of a bus at 2am.

I am a loud pesky child.
You are the black beaded bracelet on my wrist that
draws cathedrals, castles and tundra domes
but won't pay attention in class or roll out the garbage
for the man with the hat in a white Cadillac.

I am a wrinkled leather seat.
You are ashes, glasses, an empty mattress-
abandoned home in the trailer park
growing weeds and wishing it was never conceived.

I won't be at your bedside,
I won't climb onto your sinking ship,
but I will be the cardinal
perched in the dogwood as traffic passes,

and passes and passes but never stops to hear you


Play your pitiful violin 
into the ocean swallows you.

Telyscopes Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

"Since 2012, Telyscopes has molted through one reinvention after another--shedding layers of lo-fi psychedelia, chamber pop, jazz, and electronica like cocoons as the project grows more legs, prettier wings, or sharper mandibles. The lifeblood remains the same: offbeat lyrics and striking melodies. Often ingenious--never typical."
