distort

When I hit the net there's no need to pack
Never need for doing laundry you ain't comin' back
I spike you center court like a heart attack

Dipped and douséd dumplings
Wanton disrespect
The hors d'oeuvres ordered plainly
Then drowned down in neglect

In glacial, sparkled windows
Reflections, looking through
The brainstorms overreaching
'til the moment they're unknew

Maintenance, maintenance, grabbing at straws in the dark
I perambulate with a baby in tow
and we gracefully pass through the park
The onlookers gawk as we go on our walk
But their kids always circle like storms
But who's keener eyes: those judging outside,
Or the ones in the midst of the swarms?

Karaoke karaoke, a sideways syllabic achoo,
I just had a lisp that I lost late last night
with the hay season what will I do?
My medicine's gone, like night unto dawn
I borrowed the time and it's blue
I knew knots to tie, yet nothing that I
Could lace up and call it a shoe.
