and there was a great trembling
a dismembering of shadows
the sky closed its eyes
as the bright range was swallowed
wild arch backed saber toothed cat
amidst his frigid boulders
gnaws a clattering shoulder
coiling, recurving, vertebral column broken
a moment stolen exploded into a million
then rebuilt again
the old hunger smolders
til the fierce flame flickers
now let the smoke thicken
STILLNESS
then the sound of water
the temple is pond rippling
bark ripped clean from the xylem
as a quiet sign to them who pass
the last and heavy breathing
dragged into the cold cave
as it rained
ink bleeding on a letter pleading
dusk is falling son,
don't be caught blinking
he was
the odd camouflage
the jaws in the shadows
the frog's strange song
the profane and the hallowed
the old chief seething speaking in a tongue none fathom
the jungle cats tactic in keeping
with the fact that
i'm not from your city
i'm from the fertile land that your city is eating
and on behalf of those speaking
a dark mist in the silent forest
porcelain tortoise embryo
found frozen
and a little boy holds it
pedaling unsteadily down a mountain of corpses
singing a strange song
in his tangled mind a chorus echoed through endless caverns
i came to stack the carcasses
and branch out my antlers
with alligator lizard sinister eyes to strike mantis
prehensile tail woven through the sage brush's branches
the sacred wind is fragrant
sun dances with the cactus
through many days of practice
my brain ate the mathematics
that's why i came to stack the carcasses
and branch out the antlers

Unsure how to verbally praise this incredible masterpiece of an album. The lyrics, voice and flow of Yugen Blakrok, interwoven with dystopian old school beats which were given both an afro-futurist and extreme depth spin are just.... fantastic. She grew immediately being one of my all-time favourite rap artists for this stunningly beautiful music. Jazhra
