biggest deposit of white quartz lyrics
gleaming white quartz
buried deep beneath the mountain
can you feel its force?
shift away, then toward
if you listen close
you can feel its slow ascension
in an asheville store
where your band had toured
2013
the first florist / told slant tour
in an asheville downtown kava bar, the barista had told you
“asheville is built on a quartz deposit, lies
biggest deposit of white quartz”
barista said to you solemnly that night
“the quartz had activated,” she warned
“ladies night at the kava bar” — emily thought that was funny
but we were two weeks into tour that day
so you went just with you three
susannah and you and emily hit that, the ladies night at the kava bar
and when you left you had told us all brightly
what she had said to you about the quartz
2016
bellows’ fist & palm tour
at the bat cave in arcata we watched the election results turn
i left the show and i cried that night with my dad on the phone
in the night sky, thought i heard drones overhead
demon h~rn blasts
i repositioned the knife in my back
but misfortune just kept happening
one after another
lost one friend to fentanyl
one in san francisco on a skateboard
until in things like the la la land mixup, watching the ‘17 oscars
or in the patriots / falcons game comeback
i started thinking about the quartz
people who believe in things
like that crystals perform charms
believe that you can activate a quartz and can do harm
she said that people behave a bit strangely, in ways you never predicted
so try applying geology to that, tectonics shifting and things of that sort
as if a whole paradigm had just shifted the whole earth
the whole axis on which actions build
on all people and their works
so what if somewhere an answer for this lies in this deposit of white quartz?
that something shifted so deep in the planet
things will be f~cked up forever more
