Scratching at the bone
Pour through the pores
Raw hide
Common sense prevails
But I heard the words and chop again
Dialing on the grid
I'm a sea sponge
Separate the toe
Perforate a lung
Lacerate the truth as I drift under
Run
Fighting a secret war
Puking at the sight
Of all I stand for
I'm whitening
Chakras in a bowl
Paraffin and wood chips
I'm ablaze
Finger marks in teeth
I'm a sea sponge
Separate a thumb
Liberate a nail
Bludgeon all respects and float eagerly below

Guillotine

Like a severed head
I'll talk for 13 seconds
Thickening blood is spreading
Another slice of doom to spread along you
When the heat of the day comes
The smell will knock out cattle
But you willl be left standing as always
Let's make your choices clear
Decapitation or guillotine
But the feeble diners can't stomach all the lice
Within their meat and table wine - recoiling
When the dessert comes out
Lord have mercy
It's not a silver service
You poor dears
Dastardly liars
Cheating for your own good
Comeupance
Vengeance
Dooooooooooom
A global swarm of distant vapid slime
Invading everyone
Your day will come believe me
Your guilded palace built upon the hill
Wil be destroyed and melted down one day
I care less

Battering The Sun

Take your time to wipe away the pus
It's dripping from the walls
But should you care?
Clean lines
Associated disappointment
We're all weak in the head
Slaughtered calves and melatonin
Taking time and cider vinegar
Desperate and stupid
Flee the world and heaven help you
Standard issues
It's the gaps that make the difference
It's the holes that count
Battering the sun, eagerly
I'm battering the sun, eagerly
Distance times misery
Two tonne hike
Don't tell me it's a range of things
I am aware
But those things are stuck looping, looping, looping

Tim Islander Newman Peacehaven, UK
I live by the sea. I play guitar. I sing. I feel older than I am. I look older than I feel. I am tired. I am anxious. I am lucky.
