Pineapples are the trapped souls of car salespeople.
Donnie Darko never had a car.
Elliot loved his car.
Commentary builds prisons of cleverness.
Vision breaks chains in silence.
The collapsing of Innocence and the rise of its legatee Depravity.
Depravity wears her sister’s dress and curtsies out of vanity.
The lizard burns to move forward.
The hyena survives by questioning the corpse.
The sailor sings because the sea does not care.
Confidence is the folly that sings while it binds,
A golden mask on a hollow mind.
Culture is the cage of consensus,
Where dead men dance to remember their senses.
The sweetness of love is the bitterness of rage,
The mercy of joy is the cruelty of shame.
Innocence wails as it’s struck into shape,
On the anvil of will by the hand of the ape.
The bee knows nothing of beauty or truth,
Yet every garden is its unspoken proof.
The road to hell is paved with gold and steel,
And the weak are the measure by which empires kneel.
Justice is a weight that the sword cannot bear,
And truth is a feather that poisons the air.
Tiberius’ Capri is Heaven’s bruise,
Tiberius’ Capri is the sleep of the sun,
Where silence blooms in decadent hues.
Vision without will is like a bat flying into a sill.
Will without vision is like a sword held still.
