Personal Mythology

from The Liminal Hymns by Anaïs Believe

/

lyrics

i've been counting down my
memories
I hold them
i don't want to
forget
the way the this world
fades
on me, oh my
with a slip, a seize, bye
i slide through time

i am my own fable born
she came in the form
of an orange peel
lodged into my
throat until
my grandmother snaked
her finger in-gasp

breathing-

there is another memory
that's
catching in the quick
i am six or seven
there is the
immortal soul
i have screwed up
i am not worthy of it
how?

skip ahead
i learned to snake
my own finger down
my throat and pull out
the poison
pull out the amens

i'm real cause i'm here
i'm real cause i'm here
or am i
i'm still here
or
