Contemplation

Of kin and kith
Of bone and blood
Of sin and myth
Of stone and mud

Of breath and life
Of text and page
Of stress and strife
Of sex on stage

Of fear and fright
Of smoke and rain
Of black and white
Of choking blame

Of bits and bytes
Of lips and teeth
Of tits so bright
Of legs and feet

Of space and time
Of sonic screams
Of pace and rhyme
Of chronic dreams

Of heads and news
Of whores and pimps
Of beds and blues
Of laughing chimps

Of cash and debt
Of magic gloss
Of flash and fret
Of tragic loss

Of wings and horn
Of cats and claws
Of things unborn
Of crime and laws

Of moist and dry
Of creed and care
Of choice to fly
Of breathing air

Of fangs and dogs
Of juke and gin
Of gangs and hogs
Of fluke and fin

Of candle flame
Of bleeding shot
Of brand and name
Of me in thought
