Biochemists Agree the Light Was Gaseous

dried glue on my fingers
late to bed again
another sacrifice
Sonic ice doesn't work like it did before
no more trips to the store
got the magazines and groceries
and blowup T-Rex punchbag
tomorrow night will be sedate
at this rate I'll never be Edna
Zelda, maybe
but never Edna
I drop names like everybody else
I wash clothes at the laundromat
I make nice and touch your neck
then blow it all to heck with my fury
so out of nowhere
so like the stars of our tornado videos
no canyons for the echoes
alas
I'm a troubled lass asking
for a season of senselessness
parole from the expected
get thee behind me
jesus
I'm not begging for forgiveness.
