Seven


impress the restless
arouse the somnambulist
cause I'm that quickwit of a lyricist
that flips like a gymnast
in a floor routine
obscene like gangrene
when I defame the harlequin
setting off alarms
like panic disorder
cause I devour you like fodder
like I was your father
paternalistic
when I explode like ballistics
destroy like eugenics
but entertain like calisthenics
performance
coupled with torments
and take advantage of ailments
that entails this:
not pusillanimous like cannibus
or compliant like a sycophant
but larger than life like a rembrant
alright, enough of this cant
