Triumph Of A Heart

Björk · Medúlla [2004]

The nerves are sending

shimmering signals

all through my fingers

the veins support

blood that gushes

pulsively towards



The triumph of a heart - that gives all : that gives all

The triumph of a heart - that gives all : that gives all



The stubborn trunks

of these legs of mine

serve as pathways

for my favourite fuel

heading upwards towards

my kidneys



The triumph of a heart - that gives all : that gives all

The triumph of a heart - that gives all : that gives all



Smooth

soft, red

velvety lungs

are pushing a network

of oxygen joyfully

through a nose

through a mouth

but all enjoys

all enjoys



The triumph of a heart - that gives all : that gives all

The triumph of a heart - that gives all : that gives all

The triumph of a heart - that gives all : that gives all

The triumph of a heart - that gives all : that gives all
