Exploding Head Syndrome

The noise that explodes within my nearly dreaming head Awoke, sweating and wheezing, rolling about the bed Quickened heart palpitations, feeling like i'm dead Wouldn't be surprised if my ear has bled Is it cos of those pills my mind was fed? Vibrations like a steel cable tensed, that goes twang When it suddenly snaps, engulfed by the clang Like sheet-metal that a crow-bar bangs Piercing my dreams like a vampires fangs Or the feral youths in their pus-sy gangs! When i'm thinking and drinking from a psychedelic tap I get attacked by a nasty brain zap Like some mighty metallic thunderclap It sounds even worse than a hiphop rap As if my dimensional tether is about to snap And i'm awoken with an unpleasant slap. Seems to be when i'm tripping alone Every time my mind is truly blown When my soul is free, allowed to roam I'm hit by the twang, that makes me groan As i'm yanked back to reality by Exploding Head Syndrome! ©John-Ovan.P.Hull
