   In retrospect, i should’ve used Capt Beefheart as the soundtrack to this:
   Each pillow is touted like a rock
   The mother / father figure
   Somebody’s had too much to think
   Send your mother home your navel
   Case of the punks
   New hearts to the dining rooms
   Violet heart cake
   Dissolve in new cards, boards, throats, underwear
   Ashtray heart
   You picked me out, brushed me off
   Crushed me while I was burning out
   Then you picked me out
   Like an ashtray heart
   Hid behind the curtain
   Waited for me to go out
   A man on a porcupine fence
   Used me for an ashtray heart

   We were at the beach
   Everybody had matching towels
   Somebody went under a dock
   And there they saw a rock
   It wasn’t a rock
   It was an elongate heart urchin

   Fast and bulbous. Yes.

   Also, Fred Schneider crying out, “Elongate heart urchin!”
