Stiff Trousers

You can hold me tight
You can tear me apart like stiff trousers
in denial

Today I'm feeling tired
I can flow with the current
of your wishes, your desires

You thought you could convert me into your prosperous ways
You thought I could become a snail without being constrained
constrained confined
constrained contained
constrained confined restrained detained
constrained

I dreamed of perilous flights within your tepid skies
but you push me into kitsch cells with intrepid flies
You kiss me and infest my stomach with phosphorising knots
You enwrap me in complications and delusionary blobs
