tick, tick, tick.
tick, tick, tick.
the silence is filled
with a steady pulse.
a calming, steady rhyme.
so soft a sound, it could
send me to sleep.

then, an incessant whine
slowly feeds into my
intravenous drip.

I loaned a friend $3000 for plastic surgery,
I am still looking for her.

It's so quiet now
Have I gone deaf?
No I said that out loud
So I've just gone thick.

everywhere flesh on show
for sale or free

come to the sale
-or jump right on in

what is sacred
an immortal fire

the lost pathway
an end of love

math in creation
wonderful equations
mind opening numbers
all adding up to love.

you wish to be away from here
to find yourself the other-side of mortality
cradled within The Sacred Heart
to be eternally complete
in union with your lover.
