lyrics

the pink unicorn looks at you with lunacy and indecency.
it is as if a point on your belly itches. You scratch to relieve yourself, but the more you scratch
the more it itches. so you keep on scratching. Through the hair. through the flesh. Through the iron that keeps your skeleton whole. it continues itching but you no longer hunger
for scratching.

you're in spare pieces. (self-destruction.)
the pink unicorn tears off your head with its benevolent smile.
it penetrates your being unconsciously. / it knows everything on you / it wants everything about you / it wants to devour you /

the pink unicorn flies in a Crayola sky
weaving its web of tearful whistles and carnivores on the edge of circumflex, cerebral death.
its wings of sheet metal and magma sewn of pyjama fabric
beat the air with their heavy mass / and its ripped open torso lets flow her bubble-gum coloured intestines

but it is her eyes that provide the scariest spectacle
it is as if their shine evoked billions of stellar teeth formed from clouds
of sharpened diamonds. that cut out the planets and devour the heads and tear away the new-borns from the humid basements of specialized clinics in botched abortions

her laugh is like an epileptic fit / her smile detaches from her anorexic lips
her whisperings worm their way under your eyelids / between your eyelashes and penetrate your retinas to loot them for sulfuric urine / it blinds you and gnaws your face while you scream a laugh covered with incoherent words. and you wake up in pieces from your post-traumatic nightmare
