The words that explain history.

The meaning of the mother tongue

written in concrete all along,

red skin from salt water winds.
8
Seashell houses, a distant ring
9
is telling me constantly
10
i'm drowning in the language
11
of good memories.
12
Comic books and songs that sound
13
like stomping your feet on the ground
14
and howling at a painted moon
15
in a picture book in the afternoon
16
right before teenage tabloid press
17
in the back of the car with arms outstretched
18
across a rugged and rocky coast,
19
it looks so small with one eye closed
20
but grows as i grow every year,
21
there's a whisper in the atmosphere
22
and i learn and learn as i repeat,
23
i am drowning in the language of good memories.
24
Flower patterns on the walls,
25
the smell of summer down the hall,
26
a story to everything there is.

Cut-off heads and doors in crooked trees.
28
Plastic bags for plastic food,
29
i am pale with a smirk under the hood.
30
I feel like a bird on a leash
31
but right now it's good enough for me.
32
here's the church and here's the steeple,
33
open the door and see all the people.
34
Close the door and hear them pray,
35
turn around and walk away.
36
There's rain and fog out on the sea
37
and i am drowning in the language of good memories.
38
There's rain and fog out on the sea
39
and i am drowning in the language of good memories.
