Embryonic Rockabilly Polka-Dotted Fighter Pilots

[•]

 

war games begin in the womb

give birth to infant espionage

your mother was a missile launcher

she fed you broken treatises

clothed you in a rhythm and blues fashion

 

you grew to hate the West

until you became their brand song

which was fine and dandy

until your career tanked

and so you fly towards the sun

believing death to be a rebirth

and not what it truly is...

 

water under the bridge

 

and water under the bridge

eventually rises
