  • Manett Living, Issue No. 3: The Sea Urchin

    The third installment of my lackadaisical poetry 'zine, Manett Living, and a companion piece to The Sea Urchin EP. Printed from my personal inkjet on crummy photocopy paper, the scan shows bleed-through mishaps that create a hazy effect. I really like it this way, it's a perfect error.

lyrics

I saw a spider
He was looking for a sparrow
He wanted to
be eaten by the sparrow

He had no hope
At the end of his rope

I said to spider
“Do you have any young children?”
He said he did
and they were waiting for their dinner

“I’d rather go off myself
than see them starve,
than see them starve!”

I saw the shadow
of a sparrow coming near
I turned to shoo it
so it wouldn’t get the spider

He said, “What you trying to do-o-o?”
I said, “If you got nothing to lo-o-ose,
why don’t you wait a day or two,
and if you wanna die come find me –

I’ll kill you myself!
