Good Morning, Great Moloch Lyrics

Good morning, great Moloch
Bright nothing, sunflower
Selling your peacocks
At the corner of sight
Good evening, bloodmother
Far-off and broken
A nexus, a typhon
A walker on stilts

Shipdreaming and arctic
A polar explorer, a seagull
And seahorse crossbred
And unborn
Good morning, great Moloch
Great silence, burntriver
Driving home darkness
At the close of the day

Good evening, bloodfather
Smudged by the twilight
Made iridescent
By the tongue of the sea
Quicksleeping, equator
A patchwork of terrors
Bound up in brightness
From swallowing gold
