10 Body Electric / Spring 2016

The first time that you bent your wrist

And the first time you made a fist

You planned out your whole life in the lines

Like every boy you'll kiss

In your hand for all time

Well, if you believe the palmistry

Every time that your eyes pinch

And every time your fingers flinch

It's a chemical pathway

And it's pulsing through your nerveways

Oh, it's hard to explain

But if you believe the chemistry

If you believe the philosophy, the biology

The causality If you believe in the destiny

If you believe...

Fate tectonics shifting in your eye sockets
