lyrics

Whatever happened to Christopher Robin?
Alumnus of the Animal Farm
Straining to spring his make-believe friends
Gaoled in the dungeons
Of his mind palace

Kamikaze Christopher
Sucking on cinders
Clutching tight-fist detonators
To his mental armageddon

Life is what happens
In the jacks at intermission
There is no hereafter
No correction at the end of the test
No, Christopher…
There is nothing…
Here…
For you…
Anymore

Run, rabbit, run
From outbound flames
Annihilating all before them
Yet you can’t dodge
Your boomerang bullets
On their way back around to you

Christopher, here stalls your story
On the bridge below the town
Where you learned to hide
what you can’t kill
A foetus
Cradled in the riverbed
Inert
Not still-birthed
But sleeping
