A Thin Skin of Bullfight Dust - Califone

— the baptizers cage can wait

The exorcists medicine can try

— the sun falling needles on /

The water in tiger lines

One speck of skin / dust at a time

Every seven years / we become another

Time steals and stretches and retracts

We must measure and try

I’ve been a child / for long as a I remember

A thin skin of / bullfight dust

Chewing up the fright / covering the days
