City Of Needles

resplendant on my bed of nails
with laser light, my peep show
i can see the serpent lady peeping through my perforations
cold as knives, revolving on five icepicks clockwise sliced
hey, sailor, come on by and sit in my cocoon
sixteen minutes on rotorblades
a simulation swim-in pool bloody cracks
your invention, their pursuasion, my perversion
take a light speed spin down headless hole
and feel the deprivation
?
red-hot pokers in the eyes
yet we guarantee you'll all survive
you'll meet your fear, and see it's bigger, so much bigger than you feared
you'll need your fear, and see it's bigger, so much bigger than you feared
you'll feed your fear, and see it's bigger, so much bigger than you feared
