Livestock - Otep[00:00:00]
Written by:Shamaya Otep/Wil Urlich/Mihalopulo Vasilios[00:00:00]
It began[00:00:16]
With a pen[00:00:19]
In my hand[00:00:20]
Stabbed[00:00:22]
In the center of chaos[00:00:24]
To write out the light[00:00:29]
That lives within me[00:00:33]
That sought to break[00:00:38]
The darkness[00:00:39]
Eating me alive[00:00:43]
For hours I would sit[00:00:50]
Dreaming drawing[00:00:54]
Writing believing[00:01:02]
My arm in a sling[00:01:10]
One eye swollen shut[00:01:14]
Whispering[00:01:21]
There would be a way out[00:01:24]
There must be[00:01:29]
A way out[00:01:32]
Focused[00:01:36]
On the paper[00:01:38]
On the floor[00:01:41]
That held me[00:01:44]
Heavy as a stone[00:01:48]
In the corner[00:01:52]
Of that tiny room[00:01:54]
Floating on a river[00:01:59]
Of Imagination[00:02:01]
Isolated[00:02:06]
On my knees[00:02:08]
Seeded in the soil[00:02:13]
With girls[00:02:14]
Younger than I[00:02:15]
Holding their backs[00:02:19]
Arching puffed bellies[00:02:22]
Stuffed full with their[00:02:28]
Infected children[00:02:30]
Celestial incest[00:02:34]
Terrestrial insects[00:02:39]
We slept in boxes[00:02:46]
That doubled as coffins[00:02:48]
Because[00:02:49]
Some were smart enough[00:02:51]
To die[00:02:53]
But not I[00:02:58]
Stubborn little cyclops[00:03:01]
Was destined[00:03:07]
To fight[00:03:09]
