letra de gloves - the horrors

today i found a baby’s glove
lying on the drainage board so still
yesterday a leather glove from the slim hand of a woman
the next time i saw one it was lying half frozen and twisted on the kerb..and i…now i have my own private collection
all lined in rows when you open up the wardrobe doors
now i have no room for my obsession
lined up and labelled in neat little packets
the next time i saw one it stuck inside my head and became all that i could think about
i’ll think twice before i pick it up this time
since i thought about what it had done and where it had been and who it had belonged to
and i’ll twice before i pick it up this time
i thought about who it might have done and where it had come from and what it might have belonged to
the next time i saw one i had that itching sensation but my hands stayed by my sides and i couldn’t take it
and through wax seals and padlocks… a hand through my ribcage
past the choking i saw palms and fingers grasping shoulders…collarbone…crushing
i imagined myself hacking desperately at a sea of appendages, forward and right, freeing myself like a butcher, feeling the mash of bone and sinew running slowly down the front of my body… and i couldn’t take it any more, i said, i’ve got to go, i’ve got to get out of here, and i ran down the street, i’ve got to get out of here, i’ve got to go..
