Nonsensical improvised song…
21.
One fine day you're gonna have to see me cry you're gonna have to watch me fry, the one you gave your teeth to and looking to the skies from your turret of unphasable pride will you never come to question if your story's untrue? Clouds go drifting by but the shapes you see won't be the same as mine not the same as mine Will you ever come to change your mind? No, you will never come to change your mind
22.
When the door is open or when the door is closed when the door is locked and barred beyond it heaven knows and is there a door at all or are the walls enclosed? digging tunnels to the outside finding trapdoors to the road and down that tree-lined avenue to the outskirts of the town down country roads and highways to the ocean you are bound but when you reach that ocean will you float or will you drown or get to be a stowaway on a ship to Dusky Sound people lost in mazes or tangled in a web waiting for that winning email that will see them "out-of-the-red" safe passage guaranteed but who can say to where: another pile of DVDs and the comfort of your chair
23.
crystal balls and mystic coils and magic rings in a box the severed locks of kings and queens Goldilocks and hollyhocks and some has-beens sing "only love can win" bellyflops onto the ground from the trapeze some fall down some sink and drown some fly with ease some get dropped before they know the birds and bees the fledglings flex their wings but now it’s: “So long honey!” Gone to the other side I said you never knew me then And do I even know you anymore? And did I ever know you way back when? For that was so long ago crystal balls and mystic coils and magic rings artefacts and jumping jacks and submarines sentiments and airway vents in action scenes from movies... all B Grade never spoke a word about what lay inside mind on fire and heart of wire and tongue all tied drugs and booze and wees and poos from dusk till dawn the story book's in flames
