NRNP

Is everybody in?

I heard he was some kind of mad conductor

With long straw hair and a grey patch

Veins and tattoos crawling

Down his arms like an oily drawings

His knees shook like a shaman's would

Ears bent and words warbling

Ecstatic, as a sunburnt jellyfish.

They say he once caught a Minotaur

By the horns;

A mechanical bullfighting matador

Both of them broke out in a fist fight and

He drew first blood of course

Clenched his jaws around it’s throat

And out sprung crimson waxed wires

Intestines to the electric embryo

Of mad looped offspring,

Of mad looped offspring,

Of mad looped offspring,

Of screams that ring from apocalyptic

Horse hairs drawn down to

Techno harpy’s shrieks

Electric f-holes squeaks!

Amplify me

Amplify you

Amplify her

Lick the current

Split the tongue tip forked

As rattling strings talk in

An a occultist serpent tongue

Hiss

Hum

Bow down devil

Bow down

Down bow down

Down

Go down!

Go!

And rise up!

Like a scaly dropped bass crescendo

Rise!

From the bubbling sonic paella

Rise!

As these bites don’t last long until

The disk hiccups and vinyl skips

And the resin trips.


Put you bow down, my friend

And take

My applause.
