Dear Skin

Electronic babble
Shove off with thine elastic attitude
You condescending fuck hole, you tiny little prick
You don't have the persuasion to crash down my
power of hope with rationalization

Tower of rubble - shovel dirt back in that open hole
My soul residing? Hiding there
A devilish grin of rich desire - more fire devouring flame
...And shame on you, rusty beggar, the one I have longed for
You splendid whore

No gift, perhaps, to reason on the lips of this sad/madman
I was overtaken by a vile dream in which I tumbled to earth with my disassembled feet
And you must not treat me like the others
We are not one in the same
Removed...Proved to be of higher honor, least the trumpets wail
And fail to find release from this anchor
Rancor of bullshit ties, these drownings
God forgive my slightly shifting lines

Tower of rubble - shovel dirt back in that open hole
No gift, perhaps, to reason on the lips of this sad/madman
God forgive my slightly shifting lines in thought disfiguration
In thought disfiguration
King of queens and Knave of nothing, I
Dear skin
Defeat the source of that which spurns me

Meat as meat...defeat the source of that which spurns thee
As for me, do not mistake my misgivings as indifference to this
madness that surrounds me
Often time I flee from this torturous mindstyle/deathstyle reunion
Just another onion head
Polished meal of spine structure and jaundiced horns
All the endless fragments of this distorted view of life
My soul, sold...My being? Maybe
Toss, turn, burn the smile that tries to waste you
There is no hope in repetitive warfare/nightmare,
but then again, who the fuck am I to care
King of queens and Knave of nothing, I
Let us take heed of memories foretold, dear skin
