Rebound
Lost ? so I travel backwards
Looking forward to reflect on binges and beings past
Moving quickly through snapshots and silence
Each image was still beat of a blackening heart

I ? I ? I - once read a thought
I ? I ? I - once read a thought

The thought was about me

I once read a thought and the thought was about me
I once read a thought and the thought was about me

I once read a thought that I thought I owned
And once said, I spoke it to the world
Chilly and chilled like a prophecy fufilled
Like a foolish head full of liquor
Like a shitty poet looking to use

Bigger

Words

Performing

Absurds me
Grammatical rule herds me
The sour milk monster curds me
I am left lumpy and infected
Sorry like a really bad excuse
Waiting to bust ? waiting to burst
No good metaphors
Silly similes
Blowjob blackened knees
For I?ve been suckin?
Yeah suckin? white marrow from da bloody bastard boner of the ilk dat keeps da fly in da buttermilk a loner

Switchin? my scheme
Like Martin Luther King Jr. truth proofer gotta dream
I split a new lyrical seam
Same way I slice head halfs
The pen is my Samurai blade
Clever quick cuts leaving pounds of paper flayed
My thoughts are hot rocks
They came to me through time and space
Unmeasurable distances
But they are ancient ? old and forever
Passing through a million worlds undiscovered
Through atmospheres where satellites hovered
Entities of diction denying description speak

To me
And through me
Kickin? codes like cryptic fiction

Shh shh shh shh ?

Don?t worry don?t worry
I ? I ? I know it all sounds crazy but it?s like the jaunt

You gotta let go ? you just gotta let go
Forget about what you think you know
Is linear
For lean is merely a perception same as mental incorrection
The jaunt will jerk the body through time just fine
Once you shut off the bliss faucet
Because earth thought are too motherfuckin? holocaustic
Please do indulge investigate my plausible solutions
Thismosphere and thatmosphere are atmosphere pollutions
Of the airspace betwixt your audio receptors
The fibre hairs have dry hands
Smashing ripples riding thermals to your heart
Heat
I will bring heat to your heart
Heat heat searing melting
I am pouring metal
Dials are going crazy
You chest is a table
I am pouring bronze
Such expensive ribs ? what a lovely sternum
Your innards are the universe
I am but a silver pinball bouncing amongst your stars
Silver ? now I?m pouring silver
Filling up the universe
Forming a shape for your precious black hole
China crisis ? meltdown immanent
Homer Simpson at the control
My ship and my shit is comin? apart
But bronze and silver made a mould for your heart


There?s a fire in da hole!
There?s a fire in da hole!
I?m da fire in da hole
And I?m goin? for da gold!
And I?m goin? in!
And I?m goin? down!
Pourin? gold into your soul with a skin shade of brown!

And I don?t know what I am anymore
But I?ve given you all that I am

Drip by drip by drop

Heart

Stop
