We are working on our fifth full length track and i thought i should share a poem i wrote which will be used for this song, titled "Cartilage Man". I know it seems a bit pretentious but hey. And NO this is NOT emo poetry!! Read some damn Ted Hughes!
Here it is:
Cartilage Man.
I
As the dark huddle of figures,
Focuses in on the central soul time-piece;
Bone Man
He begins to disintegrate,
Liquid marrow melting into the cracks in the pavement,
Becoming one with the solitary confinement
Of the underground multitudonal common-place.
Only his scalp is left;
Becoming fried on the head of the earth.
Can it bring him back?
II
Years gone and the hair has sprouted,
But now a dark green,
Quite different to the original white.
Since the first coming,
A star has been budding
In the cerebrum of the ash tray.
It grows bigger,
Bigger,
Smaller,
Bigger, Burning a vortex in its base,
Falling through to become re-born;
III
In the cabbage patch of sarcasm,
Bulbous and crisp,
He kneels.
Poised;
Cartilage Man (AKA Aphia).
