lyrics

I am alphabet souperman/Superman, Cal El/L-M-N-O-P,
just a melanin-skinned fella delvin' in linguistically,
the twenty-sixes on my whip consist of shapes from 'A' to 'z' of which I choose to mix and flip like crepes to relate what I see to people,
using equal parts of pictures plucked from Tempe windows, and the bitter bits tucked in-between my lust for buxom bimbos,
I spin rosy-scented, pensive prose that's penned through broken lenses
'till my tinted sins distend and bend, resembling Roquentin's disgust, mistrust with viscous sickness thrust at flickers of existence,
just a trace, ups the pace, makes my heart's pistons' pumping quickened,
blood is thick and ink is thin, that's what I'm thinking when I'm writing, so I blend the two to make it true, yet fluid and exciting,
cake with icing, make mistakes in life, my vices need revising, as I sit wide awake, too high to shake the messages that I've seen,
plagued by vestiges of Pleistocene greens beamed into my daydreams,
of a static life, arrested progress, objects, watching waiting,
baiting me to invest in this quixotic quest towards esoteric essence, where the lessons learned are less discernible when told as testament,
regressed to pesky pestilence, anecdote, not evidence, a manic quote, an Escher print, infected by subjectiveness,
bless the Kents, but I'm convinced their wrecking my effectiveness, these sentences aren't meant to sit or fit with your directive,
flex my methods 'till perspective shifts, drifting toward a synthesis, intently piss on bridges, dropping digits for the dissonance, 'cause you can win at this with inventiveness or lose with love like tennis,
I'm just stuck in this fruitless pursuit of a Lois Elaine Bennes
