Goddamn Luke-duke, that was some HARD SHIT !!! You have an awesome grasp of playing with words and imagery dude. Good stuff.
The Backwards American Nail bomb Hallucinogen Waltz
The resent amputee made a mockery of the party pitted against one another at the dancing fool disco scene. See sun outrun sideline tan chiseled that roll tape duck pattern to your lips and the chatter clung to the walls something awful. Said no thanks I’ll pick the prophet instead, water over wine, in sight and in line over an outline, outright and over my head, but I swear I’m doing fine.
And my heart is back on its shelf. Packing dust in its pockets for the cemetery symmetry scene with pine boxes to practice my lines. I’m getting sleep down to a T. Crossed it out with my eyes, and despised, the checkmark spark sprung by conversation. Experimentation by scientists trapped up in lace. Test tube transmutation. Perfume scented umbilical chords are the invitation. This is wire attire, with eyes like pyre fires. Dead set on ashing up the room with syntax and drunken sociology.
So we’ll dawn our skin jackets and cover our faces with porcelain and play piano til the dead chime in with the concierto. Springboard chorus, she’s gorgeous, and gonna save the world one dance at a time. This cigarette will smoke me out, but lets talk about how these four walls we call home keep us cradled. On the fringe of a pedal, and we clung something awful…
Figure out the theme... I just wrote it and it's almost 3 am, so it's rough as stubble.
What a selfish position, whore out of control run sugar, run, trip, strip and fall
"it's blatant disregard so, oh don't be worried those lines on your face show me your makeup's been hurried"
by now you know hurts and what feels good too selfish hallow eyes and tense mouths fumble though taboo words in his pants full of money won't leave her ear-- "no one's ever called me honey"
i'd use my own words, if i weren't so afraid i'd say it with my own voice... if i wasn't too afraid i'd stop it right now, if i weren't so afraid and gagging in that mess i made
it's not enough to fill the most space yet be a little shadow showing satisfacation on your face
both succumb to immediate gratification and whims yet the other wishes for better as they approach the green light outside dims
structure and timing are all out of place with his heavy hands supporting the heat of the moment, drawn red on her face
(finally 400 posts)

Wow this is an excellent one. From what I gather its about a girl's dissatifaction with herself and the things she does with her life. What she sees as the most important aspects of her persona and profession really isn't what she wants to be the determining factor of who she is, because what she actually does (model, maybe even a stripper or prostitute) isn't the most wholesome or undefiled thing shes ever engaged in. And aside from that just sort of being afraid to "come clean" so to speak out about herself and her own guilt about what shes doing to herself. I dunno, thats what how I took it.
Kind of like Jerry said, feel free to make my words fit whatever is most relatable to you (something I believe in strongly). It's more of a person who gets too caught up in a steriotype...
i.e. she was involved with shady men at one point, and even though people didn't remember she was a slut/whore/etc. she still thought of herself as one and expect that out of herself. The man she's messing around with here doesn't take her as that at all, he cares for her, but it's very awkward for him to stop her. Loss of control, id vs. ego, etc.
Each line/stanza is tied together by the idea of the Seven Deadly Sins. In order they are Greed -- Pride -- Lust -- Sloth -- Gluttony -- Envy -- Anger... obviously each sin plays and enable other sins, until it's just a mess.

i ****ed your girlfriend last night. while you snored and drooled, i ****ed your love. she called me daddy. and i called her baby when i smacked her ass. i called her sugar when i ate her alive till daylight. and i slept with her all over me, from forehead to ribcage she was a dripping mess. sometimes i thought you might be spying, living out some brash fantasy, but no. you were knocked out. but we were all knocked out you know. in a way i serve too many masters. we didn't know you'd break the bottle that the magic came in to use those jagged shards to slit our wrists and neck. and you'd do it too, you're that kind of dude. but you wouldn't know what you were doing because i didn't, your girlfriend could have been a burn victim, an amputee, a dead body. but god damn I wanted to ****.
Attendant please attend me I need a little bit of coffee the pilots going crazy I recently just learned this guy is a businessman and has a family He is clenching his hands spilling names I fixed his cross
The horse’s cat has got my tongue And are forcing words into yours Just like the dog that masturbates with out his bone And the alligator that freelances his words Fortune cats are for free Pay some respect
Take a look outside You see that cowboy? He is catching crazy cattle with his bare fists
That china man can help you with the Date and time Word and Phrases Would you like an egg roll?
I woke up and saw the pilot turned the seat belt sign off I went to spill my water That girl said she liked my hair I said your ****ing crazy Would you like a drink?
I saw the southern coast I heard the pilot’s voice Rest assure ground dirt Make your body motion
What I’m doing here its so outmoded This place is kind of cold and a little but empty
Dolphins prayed Crawfish waltzed with stomach files filled to the brim Now come on I’ll never find out how those leaves burned so slow Laughter? Love? Louisiana? We are men…I got sperm I’m a man!
Waves danced with mountains You made those honey bee’s sting You made it laughter Alright, alright
I woke up with your eyes Attached with my dreams Birds in the back of my head
I beseech these concubines On behalf of the stale savagery That these enigmas laced around beautiful eyes Can disclose the answers unknown to antiquity.
And she walks down the halls of this hospital With nothing but a contemptuous stare The evil is fleeting for a second But we are quick to defibrillate this heart. 1, 2, three: clear Words run dry from the moment The discontinuous echoes from screams left hanging The rafters for now are silent. The melodramatic pause is all the rage. Break This Awkward Silence Like a knife takes through butter; easy. I am redemption.
So say anything else so long as it's important To you (So say, so to say, so to speak, so to speakout)
Distasting monstrosities Everlasting smiles from passersby If only they knew what goes on behind closed doors. Empty ambiguous facades My baseless non sequiturs We are all just what we are all. There are a few tricks up that sleeve yet The doctors and the nurses are kept busy. Hollow yourself with saline drips Such a disgrace Discourtesy, Discourse is futile. How long will your apathy be a menace? The importance of our lives is degraded by the omission of metaphysics. Trying to think of something tangible I’m failing
So say want you want, and don't be trite with me. And take all the time in world to communicate Your words are going unexpressed From your heart being unoppressed Consider me unimpressed Weak lines, fragile rhymes Cover your traces in the sand

I’m walking though a minefield. Explosives are triggered under my mincing steps, but I don’t get hurt. I don’t notice. I finally stop and crouch down to see though the shrapnel and smoke. The family across the room changes the station. They want to see a flick about pirates. I try to tell them that I have to find the gold. Walking the plank, I rub worry beads. The captain slaps my wrist before I fall and he shouts Find your treasure now!
I swim to shore with my merchild. She likes to eat chocolates and make chains out of their wrappers. An old woman offers to buy the baby for a strand of pearls. She tells me I’m looking too thin. Instead, I hand her a basket of oysters and say good luck. The youngest son stands up and yells at the TV, I want a happy ending!
