A Bad Influence Influences The Influential

Turn into eucharist dust
Manifest a god you’ve been pining over
Committing treason for no good nick,
Here you are
Standing right in front of the altar
Holy communion,
Still breathing after
As I teach you to smoke a joint
The vetting process begins,
Sinking into the chair
Pressed up against modernity
Feeling everything all at once,
In this unholy carnival.
