------- Pigeon punctured lung/ Broken wing crash landing/ Crushed heart/ Razor hidden under tongue/ Lick you/ Spit-riddled scarface/ Palestinian scarf face/ Spiritual fireball/ Eyesore outcastaway/ Burnt out/ Perched on edge/ Ready to fall down/ Dunyaa is a cesspool/ ***** in a double barrel/ Daywalker mechanical/ Going through the motions like/ Corroded automatic doors/ Mad rusty/ Eyelash flutter/ Æon Flux venus flytrap/ Returning of the ***** you/ Into a pile of ash/ Phoenix malfunction/ Drowning in our own tears/ Sleeping on the cold floor/ Dragging numb feet/ Over embers/ We’re all lepers/ Eating pizza crust/ And guzzling gutter water/ Halaal slaughtermen/ Hugging our boxcutters/ Allaah, keep us safe from/ Chickens with large talons/ Free the hard way/ Self-amputated escape artists.../ Pigeon/ And you know how I get/ Wake up mid-flight with/ No wing to flap./
