CHALK CIRCLES from TULPA by Stranger Killings

Chalk Circles

All the birds are falling
Every muscle’s pumping
All the skin is stretching
Every stain is spreading

I’m drawing circles on the floor
and something bad is gonna happen

All the birds are thrashing
Every muscle is straining
All the skin is tearing
Every stain is spreading

I’ve drawn a circle on the floor
and something bad is gonna happen

all the birds are shrieking
all the pretty pistons pumping
every tongue is splitting
All the milk is turning
every muscle’s burning

Oh lord,something awful’s gonna happen

who has come now
what have I done now
can my mouth shape her name
can my throat push it out
will anyone hear if I shout

will anyone care if I scream
as she turns all my prayers into steam

I wanted her dead
now she stands by my bed
and I’ll never get out of this dream

I drew a circle on the floor
and got all that I asked for
and then I got so much more
