Tourette's Majorette
Splintering away from all that matters
Burdens of trust shred my brain to tatters
Gratitude infects while I glimpse your face
Hurdles abound to perk my apathy
Until I'm stung by that buzzing wrath bee
Bold cup full of bliss I plan to displace
My feet get caught in those rungs as I climb
Nucleotides stripped of that chaste enzyme
Past disappointments can't help me prepare
Lost at the apex with toys I so vex
My conquistador binds savage Aztecs
I long to toss you ten feet in the air
Pinning the blame proves a pungent hassle
Who will fortify my Pavlov castle?
You share unique ways of making me drool
Pernicious force bundles cellular strife
Killing diseases by twisting the knife
I scarf your smirk like a ravenous fool
Herded again toward these lonely stations
Scraping away those stagnant vibrations
Tooting my horn at your departing train
Spread on the ground like a picnic blanket
Psyche bends over so I can spank it
My legs severed from sympathetic pain
Crawling on stumps to chase down python goals
I've tripped through blockades as well as potholes
All these structures keep on breaking away
Marching bands gather as I amble by
Compelled to follow, yet they don't know why
Amoeba hungers are forcing their sway
Like Moses on pavement, I drive my quest
Bilking those theories I'd rather divest
For sanity pines feebly without you
I journey these miles in tattered textiles
While my head compiles a scheme that beguiles
Until breaking through my doom shall accrue
