When Rain Pours Down
In the drowning of her tears
there is a glossy melody.
It has a liquid soul.
Hear me cry
when rain pours down
on my glass corpse.
Sheltered are they who are restless
for wicked tendencies
to take over feeble minds.
Savor foul tastes of bliss.
For I knock on shouting doors of fire
who dance along my bleeding river.
