Wanting stuff you see around
There, a starfish on the ground!
Oh darling, you
know what you’re supposed to do.
Pick it up and run away
Where there’s no one in the way
It’s easy to chew
On its legs of poisoned glue
Throw up coloured tears and fake a laughter
Try to add a small amount of banter
Though,
Here’s what I saw:
Starfish let her wish
That once the curtain’s down
She’ll be the perfect dish
For an inspired mind / and
Lip-stick makes him sip
With caution all her time
But please, please make it quick
And finish mine.
Light up in circles
(Light up in circles my dear)
Watch out: hallucinations!
Too little time
(Too little time to stay here)
Not to disappoint someone.
Throw up coloured tears and fake a laughter
Maybe add a small amount of banter
Though,
Here’s what I saw:
Starfish let her wish
That once the curtain’s down
She’ll be the perfect dish
For an inspired mind / and
Lip-stick makes him sip
With caution all her time
But please, please make it quick
And finish mine.
