Who is laughing now?

It was all just a laugh but no one was laughing, turtle on my back

Legs from my perspective seem to snake along the rafters

Winding their necks in when I walk past, retractable giraffes

Saunter under the overpass, sounds of massive trucks in transit

Goods bound for all quarters, Africa to the Asiatic kept fresh 

Wrapped in plastic like everyone’s favourite fanatic in Twin Peaks

More than bats in those attics, skeletons rattling, black candles

I do things with aplomb, I’m a prom queen Laura Palmer

Posthumously discovered to have a drug problem

I didn’t look it but I was bothered, almost untamed the impala

Impelled me to repel you with a size eight shoe, tooth

Stuck in the top of it, blood amount was shocking, doctor

Told you to hit up a dentist, with a broken bottle I’m a graceful fencer

On the chin took it, blood was hot lava, fists baled pockets, tennerlender

Tender lover tenderise and render unto glue a rival shooter

Slam shut the computer screen, screaming in underworld dreams

Like I’m between worlds, under a spell, a spell somewhere hot

Would do him well, a permanent threshold dweller finally

Reaches the end zone with spare seconds, sparing no venom

For the opposite jersey section, legs I spread like twin birds

Active verbs, getting in cider quick as a quantum computer loads Quake 

Done quick I leave her with something sticky extract my micky

Easier than a sword is freed from a stone, boner standing on its own

Looking like a lonely barge pole out sailing on the foam, sail away home

Tell a bird to sail away, taxi came after me

Who else came after me, inherit this disasterpiece

I befriend a nooseless priest ruthless in pursuit of truth

Perusing inhuman volumes, reading dark treatises

Picatrixes forbidden mankind, secrets long confined

Find themselves on eager tongues, blood rumbling

Up from beneath, there in stasis since Cain slew Abel.
