I am my mother's only one It's enough - he's saying this because he was abandoned/betrayed by people close to him I wear my garment so it shows Now you know - he's naked and vulnerable. now you know what it looks like to see him without his masks. Only love is all maroon - maroon is the color of dried blood. not only does love hurt, but it doesn't quite look as glorious after it's done with you. Gluey feathers on a flume - pieces of himself left behind as he parted ways... Sky is womb and she's the moon - womb is new birth. he's journeying down the flume. moon- could be guidance. he's still attached to whatever he left behind. I am my mother on the wall, with us all ' - mother on the wall is a photograph of someone who passed away. she is not "with us all". neither is he. I move in water, shore to shore; Nothing's more - again, he is wandering down the river/stream.. Lapping lakes like leary loons - feeling so alone it's driving him mad. same idea implied with the moon. Leaving rope burns Reddish rouge - rope burns don't happen unless he tried to hold on... he did. it hurt. he had to let go. now he's wounded reddish rouge. that's how I understand it. - Stefan |
