metamorphosis

lyrics

you can cower from it
time will find you anyway
there’s a place for it
a metaphysical cabaret
and the numbers you’ll learn
the ones stolen not earned
will be
your sole
eternal reward

there’s a knot in that pine
you made the table anyway
one leg is too short
the top is sanded unevenly
you can call in a repair
send a ticket upstairs
but they
respond
in their own time
it’s not their knotty pine

take love off your shit list
it shouldn’t be there anyhow
when you lance that cyst
out bursts the hoot of a snowy owl
you can call me collect
turn into an insect
just like
that guy
in kafka’s hit song

and on and on and on
we begin at the sun

and on and on and on, now we pass mercury (so hot)
venus, earth, and mars, and then it’s jupiter (ah, toynbee ideas)
saturn, then i think it’s neptune, or maybe the other one
and where’s pluto?
it’s broken
away from the sun
away from the sun
away from the sun
away from the sun
it made its move
and now it’s on the run
