INVALID CODE PLEASE TRY AGAIN

Phallic monkey you rat spire
in contemporary bar you

Do I spit when harmonious spits
or do I wait for formal dehydration

Occasionally I intentionally cause write-offs
for my company with intentional typos

Do you sometimes do the same
and by same I mean holes

I've gone paperless with the creditors
and gave them my former grad-school email

The shape of your body is the shape
of every error I've never corrected

This is me apologizing for morphing
into a blush raving mess

Ceremonious is such whipping
how's about come out with us and gush

Haven't been to the dentist in three plus years
scared they'll steal and sell my teeth

How many skin flakes off
must we not consider this Winter

In which cave am I to become blessed,
baptized, and bottoms slapped

Who here owns cages
who knows the path to desertion point her out

Everything made is so worthy of spotlight
especially we involving umbilical

Each of my wives has a piece of my intestine
gold plated and mantled

Those who clutch property
cannot spell filet

Certain deaths are worth the effort of chronicle
others end up localized news

John Darnielle may feel like Lovecraft in Brooklyn
but I feel like napkins in Decatur

Very little living taking place
in this aroma therapy cell

Today we grew fat
with intention painting starvation

Every cashier is cute light
every bag boy is taught with anticipatory yes

No need to innovate no need
for succeeding here's my plate of eyes bye
