SCENES FROM AN EMPTY BOTTLE *
A tall and small punk all rolled into one little face from 1954 AD, just because you’re android
By a bad guy with a knife, in a dark room without a stitch of light, full power’s common sense
Comin’ inbound from the netherworld, outside somewhere in the essence between my Voids
I have no reason, no language, no thought to mend your ignorance, innocence and petulance.
To drink and eat the matter that is present, here and now, masticate the divine self, chew it
Teeth bite flesh and bone, suck blood out of hearts and sin out of souls while Earth’s in orbit
No idea why it’s goin’ around and around, history is hysteria and hysterical, yet all we got
Believe in the blind men and women who died and left dusty, old bones, God’s record spot.
Fear and loathing of who you are and what you’ve become after being cut loose from the sun
Light from the violet to the red, purple, royal blue, crimson and pink shades and hues of fun
Protecting your family and yourself from the predators left in the gangways and four corners
With the power within your hands and feet, you can mold the world around imagined fears.
Why the fire mixed with the water and entered my mainline, injected venom popped a cork
Let the genie out of the bottle with the smoke that disappears in the electromagnetic sky-park
In an empty vacuum, there you go again, nowhere to go once you’re out of here, go reverse
Back into the matter, over and over again, ad infinitum, highballs and 7-7’s, it gets worse.
When the buzz wears off of the reality and your hands and fingers protect your head’s face
Knowing that you must remain awake during battle to stay alive is the knowledge of a race
To be hit in the head by the hardest rock from the ground of this flotsam and jetsam of Sun
And then you die in pain or in your sleep before you get to be 100, in China, USA or One.
