Littleblood lyrics
by Faber
O littleblood, hiding from the mountains in the mountains
Wounded by stars and leaking shadow
Eating the medical earth.
O littleblood, little boneless little skinless
Ploughing with a linnet's carcase
Reaping the wind and threshing the stones.
O littleblood, drumming in a cow's skull
Dancing with a gnat's feet
With an elephant's nose with a crocodile's tail.
Grown so wise grown so terrible
Sucking death's mouldy tits.
Sit on my finger, sing in my ear, O littleblood.
