lyrics

Oh boredom
holiest of things
I become one with
the virtue of sadness
the vice that is
a lavender painting
I paint with feces
I spit blood at the fishes
& dive into deep space
as a retro, thrummed bass
clicks like a sonic boom
it sounds like an explosion
of dust billowing up
& it’s gone
& I feel pretty dumb
when a fat man plucks the magical plumb
from the tree of infinite wisdom
I feel like
I’m flying
Sometimes
I’m dying
the sky painted in
bright-red streaks of light
yesterday I fainted &
the noises creep up on me
from behind
this paranoid state of being
is pushing me
beyond
this state of consciousness
that lives in
the Garden of Sin
where I go to be
alone
& happy I bathe in
blasphemy
that’s just how I choose
to navigate through
the masses
guided by madness
the bleak sphere
reeks of ashes
& these ashes
scratched in stone…………………….
