son of Minos the simile a cow of spots three
dead vat large hat in/of snakes eating herbs living
along a chain link fence today "I'll trade you two
cigarettes for a needle and thread" what intention reference you
countered less of allowing

nets over character as power as science as pants in
hand asking Hector returns to Troy fuck this that or
E looks old today "I'm tired" locations: school factory prison
trains run out to Pasadena

and Thetis warns B "you know those shoes?" yes those
red joined street routing Trojans running across to the Mission
running back with a toothbrush "wanna trade?" wanna legitimize practice
mention that we are dancing tonight

de-centralized internal-ized restraint "pray me a new doggy, pray me"
don't let me die honey not tonight wake me doggy
pray me tonight as E sleeps no in knife-ing back
slice death to bleed death to sliced
