Brother Being
Massage my back and slit my throat
As I moan and squeal with warm waves
Fuel and thanks
Wash me down in an oak casket before he leaves
Preparation unlocked as bloated juice shoots out in perfection with flaws
As galaxies unite exploding in a blinding spectacle
Encore
To tales of grooming and pest control presented in a soothing sonnet
While the grasshoppers compete In laughing lively entertainment for all
Bumps, scuffs and earth as we forget those at rest.
Lost in play, caught in the net
Sunny side up as majestic white plays the baby's lullaby
Easy now
Rock me
Easy
Stroke the confusion and distortion
While Heaven's harmony clashes with trauma
Memories of happy times sit discarded on the concrete
With comrades staining our society as connections disconnect
I remember
Laughter
Noise
Though I am distant as I count the cost and cut through the fog
The horn sounds and I'm steering blindly through the haze
As records descend into the abyss the truth of this story never to be told
