    40 CD run of The Wolf Whets Its Teeth, as it was released 4/25.
    put together with scrappy raccoon resources and raccoon hands: the album is burnt on white cds, each coming with a uniquely stylized title drawn by yours truly. the inside cover is scribed with additional album details and customized thank you notes and doodles.

    if there is a particular copy who's illustration you are drawn to out of those various examples included in the merch image, or you want to give ~words of inspiration~ to guide my labelling of *your* very own copy, feel free to leave those remarks in the comment section when checking out (however i can make no guarantees you get the exact disc you want). and if you're gonna do all that typing-in-boxes anywho, maybe leave some words under the album itself too– your commentary brightens my day and helps me out!

    ADDITIONAL OFFERING: if you want one of the <12 hand-colored technicolor variants of the album art, pictured side-by-side the standard printed version: price is $13 for additional labor (of love), so just select the technicolor option and include the extra 3 bucks when you pay.

    thank you skky for the CDs and for burnin'um!

about

under tombstones

lyrics

i’d never seen so many lightning bugs holding on to summer
as I did in the grass of the cemetery
June born again in October

[[[[[]]]]]
their lights going out by the edge of the tombstone pond, as if they know how fragile; with one rain and they drown.

but what is gained in giving up
or what is lost?
the ones that flicker on
with their lights in the grass
form constellations to entertain
the ones above
built from the bodies below.
blinking pen nibs of carbon hollow
how to’s of starlit fable
orbital, illuminated
by the fireflies with their skeletons looking in
shining on in autumn.

keeping stellar shapes fresh
with their thirty day lights,
as those who've gone to dirt
paint their stories on the sky.

yes, those gone quiet and to loam
make constellations of their own.
keep the lights on, diamond. this world is not your home.
