The Same Boat We Rented Before
Down from the statue
and into the water
they will come for you
Out from the safety and into the womb
they will comfort you
The scanning of retinas stops now
though it’s not like I got complaints
It’s just the landlords of autumn have disclosed a lot
and they have tainted the sacred grace
For climax
add some fabric calamity and you got yourself a being
To detract anyone
add to the archetype of slings and arrows
only then will you be “seeing”
Rocks fall
humans crawl
Primordial urges
power surges
Planets shift
but trends stick
Drip dry those subliminal thoughts
they’re projecting more then you think
Sort me out
Anyone could sort me out
we’re all the same
The scanning of retinas
will never stop
The energy rattles the earth off it’s hinges
and the dirt from the grave
But I promise you it will never stop
until none of us are the same
