The glamorous are gangrenous thieves
Distracting whilst the govern steal Liberty
Popsicle mushrooms 5 o'clock news and beer
Lies clear as the Rays of Day's shine
served like cheap red wine with a side of fear.
Seize your own freedom Shun the sun
Abandoned Divine Dismay
Race the tick of the tock
Watch your sanity fray
Hop on one of the slimeways
ye 'ole snail
left trekked along
across the Highway
Humming it's long low slow song
sung, in rhythm with a thousand toothed tongue, out of tune
Forever dragging along the crazy round home of a loon.
The wild yonder awaits Tecciztecatl's return
Saliva soaked foot pushes off
this road of hellish burns
The blue openly longingly yearns
for that moment not too soon
as shade befell
the conscious snail fully aware wanes into it's cognitive shell
His cocooned spiraled tomb
Hung high again as the moon
Shedding light on the treacherous troubles we're in
until the sun comes back 'round to illume again
