She be really wacky, think Miyazaki
Hokusai just won't do, Basho tickles too few
butterflies surround her, no bell jar but an arbour
fear not trusty feline, poised to make a beeline
she's so high on life, higher than a kite, drifting in plain sight
Anger welling deep inside
nails bitten to the quick
peonies that bloom and bubble
cloy and cling and kick
questions delicately posed,
curiously daunting
deliciously haunting
She be really wacky, think Miyazaki
Hokusai just won't do, Basho tickles too few
butterflies surround her, no bell jar but an arbour
fear not trusty feline, poised to make a beeline
she's so high on life, higher than a kite, drifting in plain sight
Infidels in cheap hotels
drowning in their drink
tolling bells and gaming hells
bordellos painted pink
this is where we see ourselves
celebrate the seasons,
the work of fickle elves
She be really wacky, think Miyazaki
Hokusai just won't do, Basho tickles too few
butterflies surround her, no bell jar but an arbour
fear not trusty feline, poised to make a beeline
she's so high on life, higher than a kite, drifting out of sight
Moons have whiskers, tongues, and tails
serpents hiss and kiss,
they fly and flounder, faint and flail
don't tell me nothing's amiss
I saw your eyes glisten and fill
hope warring with hate
I'm in that moment still
She's so high on life, higher than a kite, drifting out of sight…
