Honeybee hands
Follow honeybee eyes
Sticky sweet, all for the hive

He snapped her stem,
He plucked her leaves
And died of poison from her thorns

And so she built
Upon his knees
A house for boys to play in

I'm trapped in the structure
Of this, that, and the other thing.
I'm bounded by lines
And wrapped up in strings
Your regulations
Stake me to the earth
I may never see
Society's worth.
I'm tired of laws
That do not make sense
I'm sick of these rules
Of white picket fence
Lives, lived
Vicariously
Through those who break rules,
Through those who are free

I used to dance with suicide
I used to walk with God
Balanced on the razor's edge
I never thought I'd fall

I was a graceful acrobat
And life was my trapeze
I loved to know I could let go
And end it all with ease

But I looked down and saw a net
And I began to cry
For then I knew my escape route
Had simply passed me by

Ever I have
One choice on my plate
Ever to taste
The cold dish I served to you

Mushroom stew
With nightshade tea
Stinging nettles
And salads of ivy

I'm guilty
I poisoned your glass
I poisoned our past
I murdered you

Don't fret just yet
You've had vengeance
Tenfold retribution
And never is it over

I will ever taste
The sweetest dessert
The icy plate
The meal best served cold

I'm so tiredI can't sleepSlipping deepInto that holeMy socks have holesIn all the heelsIt really feelsLike I'm floatingOn a boatOn the seaSail with meInto the sunWon't it be fun?Just you and IAnd the big blue skyClouds scudding byAcross the blueJust me and youUntil we're throughWith being usDon't make a fussIt won't be longUntil we're goneAnd this one songIs all that's leftOf you and IAnd that big blue sky

Headlights, you are beautiful
I do plan to slip into you
Over you and through you

You enchant me like the sunrise
That I may never see
And the flowers that my loved ones
Will never leave for me

Sirens, you are maddening lovely
More as treacherous damsels
Than the klaxons you are

I can't hear you singing
But I know you're not far
Composing your serenade
Over the wreck of my car

Wishing on a falling star
How I wonder what you are
Clean cup, clean cup, acid green cup
Take a seat now, darling, drink up

Take a sip, dear, close your eyes
And I'll slip you a sweet surprise
Make a wish, put faith in lies
Just one sip to realize
You're the reason Alice cries

Magic mushroom, ten feet tall
Bad decisions come to call
Flying high for all to see
All because it said "Drink me."

Take a sip, dear, close your eyes
And I'll slip you a sweet surprise
Make a wish, put faith in lies
Just one sip to realize
You're the reason Alice dies

Drink up.

I wish I were green
Or lime or chartreuse
Or really any color but me
So that all that anyone would see
Is that I'm different on the outside
And it wouldn't be so hard to hide
The fact that inside, I long to fly
