Like a ***** on a blood buzz That surrendered to the dragon Like Jupiter in a strange land Water colors and cannibals Like lemon world, minus candy And true promise and false let-downs Like McCandless or a Thoreau Down a river lacking mystic Like a soldier safe from harm's way Watching pen-pals throw big grenades Like echoes heard from a black hole Filled with demons and Madonna's Like an idea in a time warp Full of castles and time capsules Like a fire burning brightly By Eskimos throwing blankets Like Orestes punished greatly By loud sirens in double-bind Like a big world in alignment With a spindle made of chaos Like paisley love remaining still While new age brings adhesive hate Like a black swan, last unicorn Asleep during apocalypse Like kind vultures killing a beast Because his stripes were too crooked Like a family unforgiving Of an angel born of their blood Like a bad cough in a clear throat Of a drunk God with bronchitis
