  1. [Lyric] I Too (Penny Rimbaud & Youth)

    I was not born But like an angel flew through celestial skies Mine was not the waiting I was carried, swift, across the snowy peaks They too are eternal, speechless And if I hear you laugh I hear also the howl of the wolf Its yellow eyes are fire Do not doubt my certainty I am that beast, there is no snare I entreat you to cast off your...Learn More

  2. [Lyric] Incantations of Intimacy (Penny Rimbaud & Youth)

    How I cry out to touch Where expression of it is only there in the taking When longing was rich, how longed for I was But was that the tension of opposites we call love Or merely the abstraction of desire? How freely I would come to you in the grove That you were entertained As I learnt the confines of the unconditional Is love, then, mere...Learn More

  3. [Lyric] You Stare (Penny Rimbaud & Youth)

    You stare at me I stare at you And all I can do in acceptance of the inevitable Is acknowledge the symbiosis You stare at me I stare at you You like to imagine That you can draw blood from a stone But if you can, let me tell you this 'Tis already done So bound in mathematical perfection The equations are absolute Finite yet infinite Each bleeding...Learn More

  4. [Lyric] Somewhere over the Rainbow (Penny Rimbaud & Youth)

    Somewhere over the rainbow Way up high There's a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow Skies are blue And the dreams that you dare dream Really do come true Someday I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far Behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll...Learn More

  5. [Lyric] And If I Lust (Penny Rimbaud & Youth)

    I reach out to kiss the ghost of spirit A cadaver retreating before my warmth As I bring love, so it retreats Come, come then That we might spare the courtesy And if I lust after life Then life laughs back For, truly, life is that laugh Truly that lust And thereby contains and dilutes us...Learn More

    You brave old land that stands so firm You fortress against time You rocks and stone so long before me You green ivy so metallic in your grip You mighty oak, mightier still in the root That there we are entire You brave old land Your service to industry which also destroys you You copper and iron, the smelt and the casting The transference And in...Learn More

  7. [Lyric] We the Mountain We the Sea (Penny Rimbaud & Youth)

    To see you laying as the earth Your eyes as gentian pools No longer of sight, but in sight That stones might be tempered Or the skies suddenly set in glass And this the nature of quartz So immediate in its alliance So impudent in its defiance of night Then carry this poesy from the grove That upon the path We might yet unite within the fire To...Learn More

    Hoc est enim corpus mei Hoc est enim corpus mei Oh, borrow my tiredness Young girl, young boy And wrap it in your hair like garlands Take it as a kiss And feel it upon your lips Hic est enim calix sanguinis mei Oh, borrow these aches Young girl, young boy And make them into the spring of your lithe bodies The laughter of heart and the chuckle of...Learn More

    Oh, you who corrupt democracy's voice Who befuddle minds with delusions of choice Know this, the lie is exposed For when capitalism beds with democracy The misbegotten offspring Is the unbridled monster of hegemony Beelzebub, Moloch The tumbling towers of crumbling powers I spike thee in thy corporations Defy thee in thy conflagrations Curse thy...Learn More

  10. [Lyric] Shadows (Penny Rimbaud & Youth)

    And from those shadows Such pampered joys are spread That here I might reach out and touch And in your eyes All time and no time How then can I but love? And then comes mist And the mountaintops are no more And above that, a cry from the wilderness Which is the wind and scrambled scree Untouchable, yet so whole I reach out for your breasts But...Learn More
