Alchemisland

Pimp drifting I drop five times fifty on fist drip

Wear it one day then take it for thrifting

Five finger discount shop lifting

Five finger dis cunt slop gloving

Head tilting like modelling clay too long in the oven

Ovengloves on during the summoning, Lord Summerisle

Mummers in ribald style belt out rhymes before the tribe

The youngest dead before their time to ensure the continuance of life

A bloodtide, an Aztec tithe paid for with youthful ichor, scornful

Adoration of the Magi, brought a pagan gift to a pig sty

Christ birth in the byre, postscript to a lost empire, I shoot wide

Like mid-peno my shoelace came untied, mid-century already tired.
