fuck your lover but also fuck your lover. if the lover’s beloved is truly god than we’re tired of longing, tired of imagining, that tease of new worlds. isn’t it about time for union? god, fuck your lovers! when they set themself on fire, that made sense finally – like fireflies, these self-immolating bodies that don’t require reflection from another, showing that there are gods within.
FUCK YOUR LOVER!
​

i miss the lover, i love the lover, i hate the lover, i die for the lover, i wish i never met the lover, i dig in to feel the abrasion from the rub of my knees where i suddenly find them pressing into the ground where the lover’s feet walked in surrender of having found the lover! / i miss the world, i love the world, i hate the world, i die for the world, i wish i never met the world, i dig in to feel the abrasion from the rub of my knees where i suddenly find them pressing into the ground where the world’s feet walked in surrender of having found the world!, gold joss paper, tape, 2024
