Back to Issue 2 - Spring 2012
P.L.U.R. a Motto, a Facade Package filth with fish nets and ribbons Send a kiss to the shameful misrepresentation of a soul The jezebel returns it from the looking glass Initiate the advertising campaign Call the supplier, process the goods Subtract four from the profit margin Chills form, the reaction to the flavor Strike a match replacing one poison Every aspect of the moments preceding euphoria, a drag
Descend into the cavern of parasitic hipsters Where the gender signs on the restroom are irrelevant Cut the same lady on the counters Fondle the same sickness in the stalls Weak minded scum so easily swayed Distracted by the colors of the harder styles Anatomy extends the invitations As they orbit through galaxies of electric stars Repondez, s'il vous plait to a wallet
The malicious missionary distributing pleasure Bred innocence as a phoenix to chemical enslavement Deny the existence of guilt or consequence As the leviathan shadows the temptress below Awaiting the homecoming celebration Back to Issue 2 - Spring 2012 |
