Waves
Half baked metal, smelting in a dorm
one good eye, the middle of a storm
Loss erupts oozing, from a broken spire
query one’s despair, then tell me you're a liar
sweep sweep sweep its time to start the journey
sleep sleep sleep stretched out on a gurney
Speaking French divine, on the sunny moor of leeds
raining golden coins, on the child as it bleeds
Burnt fried eggs, billow from a basement
frozen rage asleep, deep inside a casement
loss loss loss the present can’t fight history
sail sail sail who will solve the mystery?
Rounded bulldog wails, plants into the grass
landslide soft asleep, fills the yearned morass
forlorn peacock spit, before a nascent preen
broken jagged pane, reflects an ancient scream
gone gone gone karma is a master
dead dead dead streaming this disaster
