Dylan Perez and William Thomas - Who Carries Corn and Crown

Who carries corn and crown
Come from the sea-side down
Destroyer of my town
And in the halls of wheat
Hear you his serpent feet
Like feathers in the heat
Along my vein and bone
His arrowhead of stone
Drives the lost blood toward home
Who makes my heart his room
Is silent when I come
Like angels in a tomb
His head of love
His hands of lace
Unwinds my final hiding place
