To a giant sloth,
The world is less mystery Than discovery. -Suzanne

under searching hands I find the feather you shed my angel my love under searching hands the earth's rich soil is turned Spanish coins revealed under searching hands a hidden clue discovered you are found guilty under searching hands I tease out these last few words then no more searching

You are found guilty,
Your con-man, fake prophet lies: Rapture? What rapture? -Suzanne

Puncturing an eye,
I say to myself, next time Don't run with scissors. -Suzanne

Staring at the sun,
its daughter's shadow glows blue when I turn away |

When I turn away,
There are still spots in my eyes. Blind, for now, to you. -Suzanne

Blind, for now, to you,
