venus

it was a tight toy night, streets so bright, the world was so thin between my bones and skin, there stood another person who was a little surprised, to be face to face with a world so alive, how i fell, nah, i fell right into the arms of venus de milo, you know it's all like some new kind of drug, my senses are sharp and my hands are like gloves, broadway looked so medieval, it seemed to flap like little pages, and i fell sideways laughing with a friend from many stages, how we felt, not at all, i fell right into the arms of venus de milo, suddenly my eyes went so soft and shaky, oh i knew there was pain but pain is not aching, then richie, richie said, "hey man, let's dress up like cops, think of what we could do", but something, something, it said, "you better not", and i fell, nah, i stood up, walked out of the arms of venus de milo
