Graveyard Shift

Another page in the tale of the graves
another stage in the unpaved trail that we blaze
another night's work in the starlight
same as last night and tomorrow night
airtight artwork from the archive
dream archetypes cold keep the fire alive
more grist for the millstone back home
handclaps crack like fractured backbones
hit the interstate
downshift heel toe drift technique exhilarate
oil on the street – iridescent hues
test the tune under crescent moon
all live bass guitar boom and bombast
combat rock type pirate broadcast
endless time – start driving through it
blend the rhyme – spark lighter fluid

audio spiraling – weightless – in filigree
spread virally to bass devotees
sound energy – unexpectedness
omnipresent freshness – decadence
check the graveyard shift type cut
midnight hour – nightowls rise up
next gear – tires leave the tarmac
test drive – we ain't bringing the car back
raw beats flowing – to each his own
launch sharpened poems from the speaker cone
lancet, sabre, switchblade, scythe
nine long lives and ninety-nine strong knives
carbon steel polished like a looking glass
start fire like a match to the cooking gas
third shift crew – blades carving through
open your eyes up – un chien andalou
