A Man Can Dream

Feed what is hungry
Let every footstep in the snow
Melt beneath your boots
Warm with blood, saliva,
And contemptuous steam

Let disdain for others stain the roots
Everything rises again
Infinity in cycles
Cycles that end with the spilled blood of brothers
And semen in dead mothers

Feed what is angry
Let every tear drop that falls
Burn and tear chunks from your skin
So you can learn to react
And think comforting thoughts
Force yourself to learn to hold them in

I'm only wanting something new
Don't blame me if it means the ending of you
It's the ending of me too
The beautiful, something away
Know when it’s right to let go
