Dustpan Effigy

Eye pillow of bright filament flashbacks
My silhouette'll pirouette around the abstract
Nerve endins prefer epsom to the rat trap
But addicted to the kick when it snap back
Never the kid to be convinced by the that's that
Mineral grit sticks to my kicks made of brass tacks
Blue moon catch me with a broom and a black hat
Mistletoe over the ephemeral for my last dance
Not keeping score with the either or's
Halfway through season four of what the fuck is reason for?
Sandman can't stand that he's not dreaming more
Every days a collegiate course in how to take the scenic tour
Meteor with pre flight anxiety
A look on my face you could read like a diary
Like everything's all good
Truman show everybody knows thats a falsehood
Stoic poet with toes dipped in a foampit
Slow roasting my growth edge on a bone spit
Pinion snacks n hymnals stacked to the ziggurat
River rat skipper of a wicker man ghost ship
Not a soul on board
Not a single reason for me to hold on for
So its plank struts a jacknife and watery grave lust
No grief RIP cards or bagpipes and black ties
Just black tides and blink sharks with Halloween taste buds
Heart locked in a chest where the anchors live
That hides from the light when its passed by an angler fish
Unlocked by the whispers of lost languages
Festering as the centerpiece of gods aquarium
Got a fruity pebble sea floor
Last name Boats first name Seymour
Saline solution being brewed in the deepest womb
Bathosphere with a magic mirror playing peek a boo
And it keeps getting wierder too
Listen kids this the type of shit they don't teach in schools
But they do teach home-ec
Safe phone sex and how to groom a cloned pet
Yup the roombas got fleas again
All them hairballs short circuited its sequencing
So long as it can still brew the coffee
Otherwise it's Cullen are you there do you copy?
Nope
Brain fog pools around my futon
Hip joint sound like its stuffed full of croutons
Crowd hypes all sound byte no nuance
Out here tryna love all my quarks and my gluons

Is it the birth of a legacy
Or nothing but a dustpan effigy
A Quick burst of energy
Is Nothing but a dustpan effigy
There is not a cure or a remedy
I'm nothing but a dustpan effigy
Everything is perfect ill just let it be
Nothing but a dustpan effigy

It's nothing but unconditional loving til its time for you to sacrifice something
I could rap about navigating the umbra
But I'd rather get back to my daily functions
Country bumpkin who waits too long to change the sponges
And can stomach raw onion like its nothin
True statement i can eat two plain grapefruits
After a toothpaste deluge no frontin
Forever unbathed river otter water in the dunk tank
Brainfood spoiled by day two
Mondays it's a new wave breakthrough
Tuesday fake news
Wednesday nothing you could ever hold a flame to
Everybody got a truth claim
But wouldn't know it if it hit em on the head and got a goose egg
Them arguments are two week like a moon phase
But they drink it up cause some people love the kool aid
Not me I'm on that fresh pressed ginger drank
Life gave me lemons I ain't fuckin with that minute maid
Hard pressed to find excess in my piggy bank
Cause I ain't counting chicken eggs
I'm counting on myself to not make any big mistakes
Thats a laughable attempt
I calibrate a counterweight to catapult the stress
Enough inertia will divert the need to grapple with the mess
And ill get to it after a little caffeine and some chess
I mean how bad could it get
The lab works on the desk
Its bad and there's only one radical treatment left
All side effects remain adverse at best
Riiiight... can we talk about this later
I got a date with a cat and a laser
Have your people hit my people my people will hit my pager
And auto sign yes I agree on all the waivers
Meanwhile its me and Zoe midnight
Arguing over whether they're rats or really big mice
Shes got an Affinity for the tick bite
Then off into infinity epitome of insight
Sandman better get to sleep
Quicksand under feathered feet
Sand castle on a pebble beach
Getting sweeped like a dustpan effigy
