Black 47 47 47 47
The strained fabric keeping society chained started to undo The most lasting work of the first and final Artist fades then splits, unglued The printed page wilts, then decays.

I’m in deep The lake is vast and black Take it, zoot flamed Spoonspine turning vantablack Any talk, I answer back Every joke you laugh I know you’re a fan Got the bug, got it bad Can’t resist my Jack the Lad Shagger swagger You won’t resist my vampiric dagger We’re animals but I’ve got…
