    Men's or cat's? I have lots of both. :D Is that what you had in mind? :)

    vacate is the word...vengeance has no place on me or her
    cannot find the comfort in this world
    artificial tear...vessel stabbed...next up, volunteers
    vulnerable, wisdom can't adhere...
    a truant finds home...and a wish to hold on...
    but there's a trapdoor in the sun...immortality...
    as privileged as a whore...victims in demand for public show
    swept out through the cracks beneath the door
    holier than thou, how?
    surrendered...executed anyhow
    scrawl dissolved, cigar box on the floor...
    a truant finds home...and a wish to hold on too...
    he saw the trapdoor in the sun...
    immortality...
    i cannot stop the thought...i'm running in the dark...
    coming up a which way sign...all good truants must decide...
    oh, stripped and sold, mom...auctioned forearm...
    and whiskers in the sink...
    truants move on...cannot stay long
    some die just to live...
    ohh.

    It's looking at the big picture while at the same time attention is paid to the here and now. Whiskers in the sink could be a common occurance whereas some of the other images are novel. Creates tension between what the protagonist sees as activities to do on a daily basis and concepts to understand without an end date. The other objects in the words i.e., cigar box on the floor, also contribute to this tension.

    oh, stripped and sold mom...

    I was thinking about this line today. He must be referring to the lyrics of Alive.

    I thought this series of words was about touring. not spending time. rushing. about the hurried life being lived.

    an interesting coincidence to ponder...

    In Red Hot Chili Peppers "Tearjerker" which for all intents and purposes is about kurt kobain, even tho Anthony has denied it is, therres a line "I liked your whiskers, and i liked the dimple in your chin"

    I think whiskers referes to the omnipresent blonde facial hair of kurt kobain
