Venus will slowly cross the face of the sun at 5:37 this morning. She has been a recurring dream of mine for a year now. I dreamt of her moving away from the other planets to find a galaxy of her own. I like to look at her when I can with my killing machine kitten Petya. Petya is very restless tonight. I think she must feel that something is happening. Petya, my lover, my twin brother Zaek and I will stay up together having milkshakes in Venus's humble honor. Zaek and I wrote this song very quickly thinking only in dreams because something real was happening that we couldn't understand.
Yours to be brave
Mary K
lyrics
Morning star, I can't tell us apart
Morning star, I see who you are
I put my money in, operator put me through
to someone who's as nice as you
to talk about who you know and who you don't
and what they do when they're alone
How are you supposed to write an honest song so it fits?
Now the rhythm of my affection is at the mercy of my fists
Stuck with the truth but not with the rhyme
I feel the pause of the water as I drink it down
Morning star, everyone puts their sunglasses on
to look at you; you're the only one I'm into
Don't talk now about what you think
Watch the murder of the wasp to the music of the bee
Morning star, I can't tell us apart
Morning star, I know who you are now
Even the beasts that kill without doubt
Know what I'm talking about.
