|
muzik of blood
|
black reared
|
pain rooted
|
heart geared;
|
|
all tensed up
|
in the bubble and the bounce
|
an the leap an the weight-drop.
|
|
it is the beat of the heart,
|
this pulsing of blood
|
that is a bublin bass,
|
a bad bad beat
|
pushin gainst the wall
|
whey bar black blood
|
|
an is a whole heappa
|
passion a gather
|
like a frightful form
|
like a righteous harm
|
giving off wild like is madness
