Lyrical Ballads



Helen burns Troy with her Beauty
Cleopatra enslaves Cesar,Antony with her
amulets,lustful curves,cups,serpents,jewels,
and dust;Deja vu,deja vu Twin-Towers no more
the crazy Laden with his crazy moth-eaten
brain destroyed mine Twin-Pride!
Deja vu,deja vu I can still see you,feel you,
smell you,touch you!
Deja vu,deja vu you pass out in my arms
In utter pleasure,passion,prem unburnt
while I enter you from behind to your harvest
harbored-barn
On my way to your Marble-Town
Of rubies,diamonds,pearls,emeralds
To draw you,to paint you with the color of
Rainbow,Van Gogh,Vinci,Rembrandt,Picasso,The-
Love-Child with the Love-Arrow!
Deja vu
Deja vu
What you see?What you do?!
