in a suburban desert
a fast food high
we swipe at peeling paint
swat away flies
the crawling milk-fed
squawking cream-filled
hominids
immune to broken
to wasted time
to bolts of lightning
bungee together
your body's guards
the bloodiest bond
blacking out the dark
the darkest flame
the darkest waltz
a sun burnt snarl
thrashing and parched
a singular desire
to drive into the dirt
no l___, no gluttony
we're free as algae
in a suburban desert
a fast food high
we swipe at peeling paint
swat away flies
the crawling milk-fed
squawking cream-filled
hominids
immune to broken
to naked shame
bolts of lightning
to broken flame
to broken waltz
to sun burnt snarls
thrashing and parched
a singular desire
to drive into the dirt
no l___, no gluttony
we're free as algae
those with an all-consuming passion in lockstep
