Smush, making jelly out of humanity.
Squish, juicy lubrication out of society.
What a beautiful and strange thing it is
to be anybody at all.
I know that she’ll live forever,
she’s an artist that doesn’t look forward.
She can take eternity out of nothing

and paint the night time metallic velvet.
For the arms of clouds dancing across the aurora rural
sunset, a creamy blue sky set that falls in love

with being such a horrendously, deceiving treachery.
She’ll find herself an artist that doesn’t look back,
he’ll sing to her dreams of painting murals out of colouring books
and digesting tomato broadcasting signals.
It’ll be the greatest love of the century.
