Web Unwinding

Nothing has changed, I'm still the same 

As bitter as brine, lurking Gorgon

A crack has formed in the abutment

It's a picture of horror 

Every teardrop evaporates into the air 

I've cracked open a beer, a chilled Budweiser

I'm throwing a pity party

Doing a complete 180

Barefooted, in hurricane mode 

I'm a big fat pain

Tucked in for the bumpy ride 

I'm rearing to go 

Dumbo under a rock 

Awkward and virgin white 

Like the swan queen herself 

Thinking about where I've been

Elvis has left the building

My tears mean nothing at all

I drink my tipple, banging my head against the wall

Everyday there's a drama, mayhem erupts

I'm a swinging amulet

Coming in with an adage 

Like I blew a hole into a shapeless dimension

I painted what happened with crushed foxglove seeds 

It was a rather cumbersome task, I must say 

I've spent today thinking about that 

 

The time I was attacked by a wasp 

In a rural area as cold as the North Pole 

I can't just erase my memories

I miss my stripling

I'm always pining for the past 

The time before I went and lost my innocence 

As if I'm a Stonehenge from happiness

I'll give you the severed hands of Calibos

If you lend me your ears 

Like a jigsaw puzzle

Everything can be broken in a single moment

Thinking about life in that sense 

I'm the Phoenix that burst into flames 

Going downhill on the toboggan

Snowballing into something 

Like a free pilgrim 

Blood rushes to the pink tip 

Now I've went and got myself in a fine kettle of fish 

I said au revoir, I took the yew and the fig 

In my ghastly tomato red seersucker

I've got Dionysian fires in my eyes 

I'm the sow's milky son 

The arrowhead 

Famished for life 

I have a strange appetite

Caked in nectar, relaxing like honey 

I escaped in the belly of the night 

I espied a golden opportunity

There I went like a systole

Axolotl after Tabasco 

It was whimsical, the banana yellow 

I went like shrapnel, like Jekyll

Ultra-delicate like a silky tulip petal.
