Born with a heart full of gold
On dingy streets in beggared cold
    Beneath my breast a plated treasure
    Not in weight I pray a soul is measured
In death I'll find my gilded mold

gilded butterflies
escape from chrysalis-lips
-- start a new chapter

if life shits on you
piss on everyones parade
toilet-bowl trade off

the jealous Moon meddles
with the sovereign Sun's light
the king bares his crown

dark slimy sewer
a toad hops in city muck
seed of Basho's wart

gilded butterflies
escape from chrysalis-lips
lovers float away

winds of perdition
haloed tears weep from the clouds
blessed disco smile

August night ponders
if katy did or didnt
tent insomnia

gilded butterflies
escape from chrysalis-lips
