Testify

Hampering the hard body

The hula hooping hypno toad

That lifts the glyphs from the crypts

The grifts from the professor’s stress, at the lips

Pressed on plexiglass

Dissecting essence from the calves

Pushed up fatally

The pleasure of predators

Predate us, natally

Instinctual links towards the sphinx

Errant, dialectical hijinx seraph

Cast aside these merry soldiers, buried

Carousels set afire

It’s pantomime

A flimsy fluttering, cartoon clattering, baboon chattering

Chromosome battering harpoon

Immune to acrobatic grumbling--critical humbling of buffoons

Limbs butter soft

Tongue under teeth

Heart under mentions but never been in the trenches

My sweater’s heavy with the weight of my own hurricane tension

Eyes dissension, pen sobbing, ink set to drink

My inkwell

The missing link between my human form and cuneiform

Suffice to say my human form’s my uniform

Small price to pay break the camel’s back and stack thy flesh inside my humidor

The way to get it back went with the troubadour

Bent over wrist-watching

A time bending scent

Winding my present sin

Around a possum tail swallowing

My ring worm hail storm hollering

Cornucopia covered in dust, fornicating wit followers

Fans steadying the readied king’s powers

All these ring cowerers

Clashing crimson ribbons wresting

Crystals baiting pistols

Seven missiles flying, flaying

Ebbing whistles dying over kneeling soldiers praying

Prying portions rationed, purpose fashioned

From my nervous system crashing

My nervous system crashing

From the system of the circuit, to service, to cervix, to serpent

System of the cervix, to serve us, from serpent to circuit

System of disturbance the service discouraged the purpose

The system of the serpent discouraged disturbing the surface

Rising from out of the circle the entropy comes

Rising from out of the entropy, empathy comes

Ever since i was a young man, I dared for you

Life is such a strange sensation, but love I knew

And I broke a world that cared for me

But you never saw it my way, and now I see

How sentimental words don’t change a thing

Sentimental words can leave you chasing leaves

Was i too bold?

Was i too young?

Are we the cold that we’ve become?

Sentimental words don’t change a thing

And sentimental words will lead you out to sea
