about

This song started as a poem. It was written in Benin in 2007 during my time in West Africa. Due to the Mefloquine I was taking at the time I was one angry man.

lyrics

My head is a Slaughterhouse consumed by animal woes. Rage has divided me from my mate, lights flicker dimly in its wake; and I day dream.

Leech like lush confiscates my concentration. Orgasms achieved through masturbation are hanging bats, but I surmise, thorough love making they're butterfly's.

Rage permeates my daze and I ponder stabbing my thumbs into the eyes of the delighted, kick the pregnant descendants of the short sighted. She has another flower growing behind her guts, a thing, pray it has not appetite for breathing.

Leech like lush confiscates my concentration. Orgasms achieved through masturbation are hanging bats, but I surmise thorough, love making they're butterfly's.
