A woman from the east divined the worms
That I ate were high in bad cholesterol
I turned to The Fuzzy One for confirmation
She was too busy eating them herself

We all walk different paths together
Or sometimes the same ones apart
Eating worms in the darkness of night
Waiting for the sun’s breath to warm

The Frenchman smoked his cigarette
And ate his worms all so nonchalant
I went looking for the Brass-Toothed Journeyer
And the Wandering Poet in a boxcar

To find what had meaning that could be defined
To see the view from the top for a change
Jay the Street Poet just shook his head
And the Lance of wisdom stayed silent

A lady with bees in her bonnet debriefed us
Before we could travel, we must have a song
I’d already tired of the idea of leaving
We all went for tea and earthworms
If you think you see yourself in here, you're right.

I'm a cholesterol of truths
and kindness
And this
And that feel write

I've kissed snails to make a princess
And been bested

My favourite death
Was one of sun shone gumshoe detectives
On black and white TV

Polarized in polaroids

Hemorrhoids for for the blind of thorny bullshit
