I am patiently waiting to be worshipped
Paste me into your dithyrambs or iambs
do whatever you like
mold me a mask or a robe
dress my head on a pike
peel away the flesh holding in my humanity
maybe then my brain would flit with less insanity
and my bare lungs could take in the oxygen I've been missing
with ideas sitting on my bones hissing
I am patiently waiting to be worshipped
ignore the dead end of any courtship
solace myself in the words of another
play pretend as friend or lover
So paste me into your dithyrambs or iambs
mold me a mask or a robe, call it home
I will make foreign words fit me like a glove
An patiently wait to be worshipped
