visual interpretations of the poetry of derek ender lee
Pieces of great innovation,
or Building little monsters and starting little fires Part 1-7
1. I am the clever fox, young hunter boy
Watch me run
Know I am already hidden from your stupid eyes
2. We pay with our teeth, dear
Dark as it seems
Betray our flesh
And sell our names
We pay with our teeth
3. The archers bow arches her back and she is akimbo
4. And she dances at night
While others are hiding
And nightmares are present
She loved him in her lungs
Like she couldn’t fucking breathe
5. You can’t stand the way I have to write it out, to work it out.
This is verbal terrorism.
6. We never ask for much
The smallest portion just to get by on
7. Tasting sweet tarts on her tongue and smiling
These words like swords are dangerous to fall on
Passing secret notes and love letters like junior high
We collapse like pictures, I’m on the bridge and jumping
We collapse like pictures, I’m on the bridge and jumping
typed poetry on paper, copper wire, wood, foam board
