Science of Equilibrium

Tip leans hard, feel the score
Pulsating move pushes
Threatens to open to join
Perilous motions easily done

Life on the edge, on the edge of his thumb
Increase the pressure
Air flows to the lungs
Rapidly, rapidly, increasing flux
Eyeballs dilated and nostrils flare wide

Hairs erect arm length
Tinnitus bounds
Buzzing man, buzzing man
All fucking around

The air all around him
Vie choke tracheal space
Too much for the living
Desired by the dead

Mortality festering
Flies descend in mind
Too much for the eyes open
Too little said unsaid

The exit sign glows bright
Rescue hatch shrinks out of sight
Sweat runs down the cold shiny
Baby need you

Check angles and calculate costs
Square root the outcome
His logic mind pounds
Transmitters pump wild
