Saving for her chrome hearts rolex

Uncountable by definition, Uncounted applicant!

Bruised in the right places complex

 

Search her narrow paris duplex

Their caricature, fable, our mythly immortal immigrant

Saving for a chrome hearts rolex

 

Not once 20 yet fully annexed

Internet farewells from the formless clairvoyant

Bruised through the disposal complex

 

Packaging lust to suppress her sex

“So I can buy” I am working so I can buy: Defendant

Saving for this feyed chrome hearts rolex

 

Pillage vastly through the artist index

Self possessed, vampire’s prey. Same faced aberrants

Bruised inside our bones complex

 

Break time to join us beneath the vortex

To long for destroyed, tranced combatants—

Saving for my chrome hearts rolex

Beholden to one unforgiving complex
