^v^isions of Mars

^V^isions Of Mars 
Drugs and booze have led some people to believe, 
in sex and lies and rock and roll and they are lost, 
forever chasing tales and their own anatomy. 
In hopes of someday 
being something in this world. 
How many people have to die 
before ewe can see. 
That the king of this eternity 
 has tails. 
And horns and jails 
and coffins 
lined up against the wall. 
Just waiting   
not so patiently 
for all of ewe to fall. 
Martian landscape fills my screen: 
green-eyed monsters dancing 
falling damned into the dust 
dust dust dust red dust. 
Lust.
