Track Insight / Lyrics

You find the machine at mile marker twelve Creosote scent rises from the heated shelf Carriage waits for fingers to begin Bell will ring when margins wear too thin [Pre- Heat waves warp the metal casing sides Ink dries fast where desert air abides Each strike lands like prayer on brittle page No delete key for this pilgrimage Desert keys strike dust to word Asphalt ribbon spools unheard You type the miles between the towns Where silence speaks in consonant sounds Platen rolls the onionskin through slow Red and black threads mark where meanings go QWERTY layout baked by afternoon Letters blur beneath a copper moon [Pre- Heat waves warp the metal casing sides Ink dries fast where desert air abides Each strike lands like prayer on brittle page No delete key for this pilgrimage Desert keys strike dust to word Asphalt ribbon spools unheard You type the miles between the towns Where silence speaks in consonant sounds Correction tape lies coiled like shed skin Mistakes stay permanent where you begin Saguaro shadows stretch across the case Time stamps gather in this hollow place Ocotillo blooms after monsoon rain Paper feeds but never feeds the same You hit return — the bell sings clear and bright Night swallows all the carbon copies light Desert keys strike dust to word Asphalt ribbon spools unheard You type the miles between the towns Where silence speaks in consonant sounds Ribbon exhausts at final county line Last period drops heavy like a sign Machine cools as engine cuts the dark Keys hold the shape of every waiting mark Desert keys strike dust to word Asphalt ribbon spools unheard You type the miles between the towns Where silence speaks in consonant sounds Carriage rests at margin edge Desert keeps what you pledge
