Is not everything morbid?

On Storm King Mountain a log cabin Was Djuna's unconventional home The child who taught her brothers and sisters Was abused when she was 16 years old Married off to a man 30 years older But she left him after a couple of months In New York she became a writer breaking the rules Depicting the bodies of women explicitly It's not where you wash your neck It's where you moisten your throat that counts Suffering is how I've learned Everything that I know Is not everything morbid? When you're drunk on shadow wine Is not everything morbid? When ugliness is all you find Is not everything morbid? Force-fed what you do not want Is not everything morbid? Your being burning with revolt Djuna's heart was shattered in the city of love Thelma totally shunned her when Nightwood came out Silence makes experience Go much further, you know Something unendurable Can then lead to joy Is not everything morbid? When you're drunk on shadow wine Is not everything morbid? When ugliness is all you find Is not everything morbid? Force-fed what you do not want Is not everything morbid? Your being burning with revolt
