Zizzing

Air flush with water Skin slick with oil Power poles zizzing in the fog like Tesla coils Sweeping patterns, glistening crystals What we call music in the air Whiskey dripping down your temples Mosquitos in your hair And in the background a riverboat is sounding its goodbye Our magic should be more powerful as the years go by Where did I go so wrong with you? Tell me, where did I? Laughter spilling on laughter Muscle pulling on bone The sorcery of stilettos spilling on cobblestone And all that precious cargo Don't know where it comes from, where it goes Just know everything else is on a mission, to decompose And in the background a riverboat is sounding its goodbye Our magic should be more powerful as the years go by 'Cause where did I go so wrong with you? Tell me, where did I?
