lyrics

I use disgust to lever theatrics
on a fulcrum of expression.
A perplexing frustration aimed
at the desire to communicate
without interest in the nuance
of frivolous socialization.

self identities
centered
around blatant egotism
conditioned so
by a people
possessed with
delusion

a communal outlook lacking
the realization of the uselessness
that is their reoccurring narcissism

Weaponizing encouraged cowardice
under the guise of politics

Flattened teeth draw blood on soft flesh,
words grow sharper the longer they are chewed.
Flattened teeth draw blood on soft flesh,
words grow sharper the longer they are chewed.

Everyday expressions
become more useless everyday
Even now, an endless vomit
of traditional turns and phrases
rests bitter as gnawed pine pitch
on the tongue

I crave articulation but am bored with the banal and accepted
tools of abstraction!

I crave articulation!

Nihility begets creeping exhaustion
A balance barely maintained,
I teeter on the edge
of waxing metaphorical.

Do I turn the knife towards myself?
Do I turn the knife outwards
towards this tribe of tribalists
in denial of tribalism?

To shed cloth fur
To adorn the flesh with ash
To shed cloth fur
To adorn the face with blood

Cave in her skull while she weeps!
Slit his throat while he sleeps!
Apes lurking in caverns
while the ice squeezes from the outside.
