This is one of my favorite songs from last year, and Panoptican (below) accompanies it with a fittingly wispy, nostalgic, ambivalent reflection.
Bibio - Haikuesque [mp3]
She asked, “Have you been in a perpetually liminal state for a long time?”
Out the window, the dark side of the road passed slowly shifting shapes and shadows lifting up into his eyes sifting through his thoughts and inside resides, sitting upon a rocking chair without a rock the bus burling a beast bowling down the icy lanes and highways drifting drops just right of insight outside of momentum. The days December deceive and become January joining. Those nights watching the little litany weaving wisps of wherewithal, they would laugh at the convolution contorting control over a crevice of discovery, designing doubt and delight with delicate care. He wonders where it all began before, and being existence extols elaborate ideas brewing beyond. But this is all a ploy he would ponder, perfunctory remarks reveal a revolving relapse rehearsed and repeated. She felt forever that way last night and he believed because.
In clear blusters, they hold hands and recite, “Hello, I’m glad.” Walking willfully bliss, a theoretically blasé affair predicated on an airing of grievances an airing of gravity an airing of gratuitous thinking for the sake of feeling, a thought about felt and he felt he thought he feels she thinks and a circular conundrum of collected misunderstandings and interpretation imbues something like mystique mistook for an always myopic perception. This mystery of movement of massive drifting and the snow falls fleeting filament landing lashes and batting, they speak in mistakes and poorly translated traversing telling tales tallied toothlessly and perfect, performed aside alleviating an alienating ellipses until.
He answered, “Yes. But you would understand.”
