Alveromancy

from Nowherer by Victory Over the Sun

/

lyrics

fingers dig through firmament,
incantatory sediment
grasp at shale couplets,
heart-worn, drenched in wh-
molluscan metonymy dredged up
by sighs, transposed iris-lit

i was a diamond and you were the weight,
i was the apple that you never ate

caked in regalia
perfumed in glossolalia,
howling words lie prostrate
upon schoenberg's bald pate

to dine upon sibilant shards
languidly permuted rhotics
an occluded invocation
none of them will make you real
vowels of infinity disemboweling divinity
gnoissiennes gnawing at tympanic trinity
the words beneath my fingernails illegible,
spaded with sign

i was a diamond and you were the weight,
i was the apple that you never ate
