Needle Boy

Who's that garçon, playing with needles
eagerly stabbing the fantastique tragedy 
squirming so quickly by the macabre melody
what makes my shadow laugh forwardly 
above me! 

Eye on him from behind turning and twisting
drilling the fear out from his astonishment
and when we move around yelling and swearing
all at once little hand drops all these little things
childishly moaning! 

His chest is silent now his life is absconding
where has the beating just disappeared? 
I'm flapping like a lunatic, something is leaking
out from my bowels deep inside me! 

Pierced to the guiltiness right by the dying boy
needles are digging like gluttonous maggots
dirtily cruelly mortally with pleasure
feeding their sharp bodies inside of me!
