White of the Eye

As a grown man retakes the world on instinct
Unearthed and gnaws off the rind
Enmeshed with flesh alive
To set things off
While pious yearn aloud
God and the devil they be silent now
And as I walk the walk of a man made of stone
It’s one step, two step alone
Avert your omni eye
When pious talk right and wrong
God and the devil, boy they laugh all night long
And as they chalk the trace of this man on the stone
Got money so leave us alone
I couldn’t believe mine eyes
As pious pray aloud
God and the devil they be silent now
Then he flushed the gout from my man Midas’ toes
Swoon with me, have mercy on…
And then he kicked the crutch from my pale, blighted son
Swoon with me, have mercy on…
And he slapped some sense to my dimwitted girl
Swoon with me, have mercy on…
And he caulked the crack in my ass by mistake
Swoon with me, have mercy on…
