Birth of Venus

"Birth of Venus" The yo yo bleeds and bends a life haunted by ghouls green nymphs blowing pixie dust kissing bottom a donkey’s soul tight rope walkin' - all for love trust is the pill swallowed suspension; addiction, the lies laid believed in cut perfection the trapeze drop plays purple rain prisoners seeking sanity the windows close out the world eventually what lives in sleep comes to collect you flame throwing its creed sparkling angels drag their smiles fresh scarlet stilettos legion playing violins Botticelli reaches for his pearl rising from a new ocean naked virtue clean living on a clam shell birth of Venus eyes smiling irreverently not a word spoken (LadyLabyrinth / 2022) "Ison"/Sevdaliza https://youtu.be/znV9KDsNtXY pixie dust/angel dust/purple rain.
