lyrics

green mangoes along the winding road
buffalo asleep in traffic
we scan the horizon for vistas and craggy rock
past chickens and insects
churches next to mosques

branches fall, hati hati
standing in red, white and yellow
eyes glowing in front of the caves
selfies with the dolls of the dead
or the sun bleached bones beside us
in carved wooden boxes
Mister, over here, call
the smiling girls and skulls

after the rain we're the ones
trapped in a box, behind a rope
zoom lenses finding all our flaws

they whisper it feels like this

as we shift and wiggle
under 29 sacrifical antlers
just kelapa cookies with sips of water
tiny offerings, bring more
bring more often
come again and sing to me
come back and sing to me
