I can't dance like her, but I can climb a tree.
Those are squid hung from tree branches.
1.
Umbilical noose
watch it drop
Tear my hair
at the subway stop
Hear my screeching
echo off tile
Bloody hand push
thru the turnstile
Chorus:
Watch me collapse
It looks like
Like a dance
Eating the Pla-cen-ta
x2
2.
Bleed my veins
stop their pound
Blood rush my ears
only sound
Writhing back arched
on the floor
Retching shameless
insides pour
Chorus
3.
Painful pull
my insides rip
dying from the blood drip
Circled palms
ashen grey -
while It turned from day
to night to day to:
Chorus
