I’m learning to recognise

each pitch in the scale of your silence

- Kae Tempest

Careful with the radio

I’m inviting

one night stands

To come to gigs

and meet my friends

Que ouço uma nuvem a vagar no céu

I stand on my own by the window

- Kae Tempest, Things I do in our house since you left

Nothingness haunts being.
