Picked over—
Agriculture,
Decompose
To the soil
Let it grow
And in the setting sun
Hold
Ad infinitum
Sending
Gentle traveler,
Green as rose
Day to follow
When you know
As your time will come
Go
Know not what you’ve done
At day’s end.
2.
If I knew
The shape of my
Face before I was born
I would not be afraid to die
In a forest
With insects eating my body
I would not be afraid of that
3.
i will
bury
another
in the morning
light
touching
if i
cover
i can set it
right
fall

Being Eaten by a Tiger

If I knew
The shape of my face before I was born
I would not be afraid to die
On a mountain or in the city
With insects eating my body
I would not be afraid of that
In a forest
3 brothers came upon a tiger and her cubs
They were dying of hunger and fatigue
The youngest brother said, ‘I will stay here
And lay down my body. I’ll become
Something good for them to eat’
And lying there, he was devoured
He gazed gladly down upon his flesh as it was torn

hey Camellia,
what are you doing?
get your feet back on the ground
and find out
for yourself.
hey Tomato,
feel the spring.
give yourself another chance
before you’re down.
right now.
hey Georgia,
where did you go?
try to bring yourself around
before you leave.
hey Rosemary,
what on earth will
make the bad thing go away.
what do you need?
what do you see
2.
When the hand
Came down
On Tennessee,
Death came ripping.
What do you want me to believe?
Fury born,
Alight,
Days deep.
Crazy visions in a
Stirred up kind of waking dream.

When you were born, we held you. You didn’t know it but you took your name then and emerged later after so many years. Sweet like okra or a comatose reverie, you found light in the gentle friction between sense and reality.
Even as a child your features had definition. One folded into the next as though composed with intention. It’s true, there were many flowers like you in bloom then. Now, they toss atop bedsprings just to keep from eddying under. Their hands grip each other’s just to try to stay afloat and amidst the struggle, pleasure darts between them. It’s not easy.
These words weren’t meant for you but one day they find you through another. And through you, one day they find another. And then one day another. And one day another. It’s not easy.
Love should be easy to forget but it lingers like death. Happiness will never be a constant state of being. You find hope in brief, slipping grasps at revelation. You strive constantly to believe in a world just beyond the one you see. It comes to you sometimes, but only when you stop looking.

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10

The metal’s band revelatory new record crosses genres and styles, effortlessly combining seemingly incompatible subgenres.

This is visceral. The pain and rage in this music really echoes with my energy when facing the world we live in. And the added melancholy is just... transcendant.
