You love us when we're heroes, home on leave, or wounded You worship decorations, while we fight, and mourn our memories You worship decorations, when we're killed, You believe that chivalry redeems the war's disgrace. You make us shells. You listen with delight, tales of dirt and death and danger fondly thrilled. You crown our distant ardors You are thinking of your sons, when they run blind with blood Innocence is drowned face down in the mud. The blood tide is loosed. Boys are dead.

Politique 03:33
I’m good at math, I can make train of thoughts too hard for you to follow Here is another speech I want you to swallow Je suis politique, être amorale, créature horrifique, étamine sans pétale Lumière tamisée, âme égarée en recherche d’un foyer, laissez-moi entrer. Population qui se masse, avec de sombres pensées pour ce moment fugace où rien ne s’est passé. I’m good at math whatever you ask I can make train of thoughts too hard for you to follow Here’s another speech I want you to swallow It’s political, please fold your ears Here’s none stop distraction

Autumn Fire 04:37
Listen, dry sounds, crisp leaves, crisp fall from the trees. Look, flame colors, leaves bled by the summer. When the leaves are half burnt, all living are counting their days toward sleep Translucent cold sting brushes our face Sunset marks the horizon with fire when all living are counting their days, their days toward sleep when the translucent cold sting brushes our face when the blood runs swiftly The light is so bright the black silhouettes of migrating birds a warning of the frost to come

Happy 04:16
I love you, I am happy I thought I was tough My skin is rough but my pulp is soft I float in water, I drink as I swim I keep medicines in my pocket, they keep me happy all day long I keep medicines in my purse, they keep me happy all year round

Back 02:55
It’s tropical, it’s day time / You’re an old friend of mine. I wonder why I’m here / I didn’t want to go north / I didn’t want to go west It was a bad idea, a bad idea to come back I’m visiting your house, I’m following your track I’m following your track / I’m watching your back

Americana 04:34
We searched the skyline, with greedy eyes and empty hunger. Dreaming of new life we worked fingers to the bone. We slept under bridges We worked for pennies And never complained We boarded ship in Europa We disembarked on an island in America We wandered the streets of NY, up and down Broadway on our own Teeth were checked for disease We were allowed in a city too high for our arms

about

Myrna Minkoff Dijon, France

Crieur, rageur, enfantin, inaudible, désespérant, lumineux, bruyant, telle la vivante illustration de nos envies, du désordre branleur, du besoin de tout faire soi-même, Myrna Minkoff s'autorise à l'extrême ses passions, ses distorsions et ses mélodies non contrôlées. Pas totalement « punk » ni totalement « pop » sa musique est multiple, jamais identiques. ... more
