the kingdoms of the world will try
to get their buckles onto you
(you've gotta steel inside
their infant firepower)

police parenthesis
put a hole in my mouth-area
so that my mouth can eat other mouths
in a mouthlessness without end

there are no kingdoms under you
there are no kingdoms over you

but who can stand inside their firepower?

the kingdoms of the world will fall
into a pulsing kingdom hole

but who can stand secure inside their longing?

and who will braid my sister's hair
and who will touch my brother's voice
and who will kiss the walls inside the ruins
