High Wire Vampire
A string of admissions begins with a strip of tickets
I'm dizzy thinking of a hundred ways to rip it
We see ourselves in the blurry lights of the carousel
Claim a horse and feel the organ start to swell
My files are in order but still trying to sort the negatives
Each day we edit evidence of what we ever did
Step right up, welcome to the slideshow
So vibrant I can see the glow with my eyes closed
Now drop your head and swing your hips to the algorithm
Check out my vacation home and blue ribbon children
Likes and loves, haves and have lots
We all could've been presidents and astronauts
Put out a casting call for oddities, the line's around the block
With fire breathers and blade eaters of the highest stock
And when the train moves the chosen few on to the next stop
The rest of us are handed rocks and a slingshot
Great face
White teeth
High wire vampire
Don't sleep
Big top
Full moon
High wire vampire
So cruel
Great face
White teeth
High wire vampire
Don't sleep
Big top
Full moon
High wire vampire
So cool
Camera pans down from a lofty perch
Beneath the flickering it's everything you've never heard
Backstage, a thousand words submerge in cursive lettering
Death-defying makeup artists curse at all the editing
How eloquent
We march and kick up sentiment
The stream is really wet cement, the Zoom is full of elephants
The finger painters pop arteries
From the splash zone to the nose bleeds in order, every aorta
Ringmaster trumpets double taps ring out in chorus
Life scrolls before your eyes as I pull back the curtain
Here, take pictures of my ticker covered in heart stickers
Scratch to catch the whiff of my shares are itching whiskers
They smell blood, it pools and they rush to the front
Scatter and duck, I set examples to self-destruct
Big top is spinning and it's gonna catch up
Keep walking on the tightrope that ends in a plug
Great face
White teeth
High wire vampire
Don't sleep
Big top
Full moon
High wire vampire
So cruel
Great face
White teeth
High wire vampire
Don't sleep
Big top
Full moon
High wire vampire
So cool
Properly exposed, no filter
With Dutch composition, artistically off-kilter
My hourglass half full cause it's hashtag hustle
Time to feed the hungry then swallow up their muscles
Delicious, two fowl lips plus indifference
Snapped in an instant, my captivating innocence
I am the loudmouth, grinding to the sound
Of a thousand white-knuckled clicking clowns, eat your heart out
Hot coals on the trail of the bigger picture
Hanging by a nail gun, the whole shebang
Show me how you frame it, Generation Pin-the-tale
Is packing crayons in a pail
I read the Pictionary
Look it, everybody drew a whale
Quick Draw El Kabong
On publish crawls
Catapulting shots
Tagging the town, I use Lysol
I wear a M.A.S.K. that is an acronym
I nabbed it secondhand
My Mobile fully Armored
Strike a chord upon Kommand
Great face
White teeth
High wire vampire
Don't sleep
Big top
Full moon
High wire vampire
So cruel
Great face
White teeth
High wire vampire
Don't sleep
Big top
Full moon
High wire vampire
So cool
I'm dizzy thinking of a hundred ways to rip it
We see ourselves in the blurry lights of the carousel
Claim a horse and feel the organ start to swell
My files are in order but still trying to sort the negatives
