    Boiling Water Backwards

    Give it up for the two-legged palindrome
    Who says he means what he says what he means
    So transparent that nothing is there
    And man he's scripted a eulogy for your demise
    He attends funerals like a court of appeals
    A hoarder of truth that never escapes
    It comes out the same way it went in
    He speaks with an orifice we've never seen

    And you can taste his sulfur and methane
    In his haggard dusk as they flare
    Like fireflies hitting the Tito's
    And then he'll share his plate
    With you as a warning and a threat
    He offers up his body and blood
    While dessert is a Walgreens prescription
    With an apéritif of therapy
