lyrics

Juliet, feel your belly ache and twist
why’d you swallow, pride is poisonous

it’s poison, it's poison, it's poison, it's poison

Juliet, did you think you’d live through this?

your throat sizzles with that spit of his,
burns like pan-steak, such a wicked kiss—

it’s poison, it's poison, it's poison, it's poison

Juliet, did you think you'd live through this?

[the Garden]

insides boil where the mustard sits,
tongue of blisters, guts begin to hiss

it’s poison, it's poison, it's poison, it's poison

[the Final Garden
in its full splendor
of colors shimmered,
glimmering across their
surface & trembling
all around & whimpered
its way into nothing]
