Maniacal Escape Aug 2023
Curtain drops,
Crowd applauds,
The magician takes a breath.
He looks down at his plain fingertips.
True magic will never be his to perform.
If it was, he would simply disappear.
Forever.

Undo your throat,
Shatter both your knees
Twist out your eyes
And cut off your ears

Snap out your spine
Hang out your heart.
Spread out, blood eagle
And swoop down to the abyss.

Worship the wonder
The dead crimson art.
Behold your new gods.
They were there from the start.

Take a little sugar
Stick it in your eye
The world seems so much sweeter
Than the one that's in your mind.

Reset.
We've closed off too much main content.
The choices we've made,
have locked us into the worst ending.
I wanted the one where we're together.
I don't like this one.
Reset.

Early morning strikes again,
Up I rise,
Collect my head,
Stare at the zombie,
caged in the mirror on the wall.

Come cut off your pound of flesh,
I don't want to pay my debts,
Dump my carcass,
Rotting freedom on the floor.

On it again
Friends are plentiful
A cake with no cut ins.
Plenty for all.
Pass me a slice.

Straps up.
Face on
Lets have it
