Analysis of Squeaky Clean Soul



Did that seem slightly off?
Let’s banish it with sage-
Surely we won’t let them play with the putty we cover in Schwärzkopf,
Our jelly cerebellum under hair turned white long before the right age.
Let’s expunge our demons-
Pray to our spirit animals and deities,
Pay psychic mediums for their insightful predictions-
On a balmy Saturday chase honey bees.
Incense burnt on the altar,
Of choicest crystals,stones and runes-
Rings,amulets and rosary beads that help conquer,
The effect of the equinox and the madness of no moon.
