blood of the cucurbita
we are myth
we are legend,
behind fences we are found
bred and sacrificed on all hallows eve,
generations past
gutted and carved in celebration,
so misunderstood seen only as decoration
as human skulls on poles once where,
unlike my wild cousins in mexico
scattered over landscape and mountain,
they do not suffer the tampering
of our genetics
79 loci,
phenotypic slides for frankenstein,s scientist
altered , inbred,
not realizing our beauty
in shape and color
palmate leaves , long tendrils
unisexual flowers touched by gentle bee
curling about stamen
stroking with long legs
collecting pollen my yellow stain
peponapis body thrumming
resonant on my petals,
10,000 years of domestication
treated worse than dogs
compliant in nature as man knows best
our flesh substance forgotten
as gourd display incised and flensed
to amuse and terrify
projects of another’s nature
that is more disturbing and cruel

“Hearts Expire” is a mix of elemental references (lyrically) , guitars from the heart
and a bright pop beat .
Greatly inspired by Space, the gravity of love and all its facets – It explores the perpetual “need” for freedom within the heart and soul .
Many thanks to the people who worked on this video with us:

The wonderful Ashton and Cat
without the wind
salt water in winter,
two fingers deep
secret to staying afloat,
vulva tides awash with secrecy
worn beneath cotton bedsheets
and that short black coat,
temptation and lust
a wanting beyond the
open expanse of ocean,
swell and topography,
knowing placement and feeling,
blind cartographer
left fingerprints and tongue
impressions,
beneath a wayward sun,
tremors that crawl
emotion burned nerves,
and within no hollow thrum,
with tug she guided
fold and rise
waves break over rocks
map has it’s relief
with tidal surge,
shudder and compression,
the moment when the sea becomes
translucent,
and memory of this voyage
imprinted overwriting
others lesser and shorted
