The Connections
I like to make connections
Creating connections is fun
But creating connections creates a contagion
-of comparible compatible connections
Concise connections, carefully crafted containing continuity
Connection A connects to Connection B, continuing to Connection C, e t c (read as ee, tee see)
You see---
I connected concepts to connect to a conclusion
That our contacts can't connect without containing concerning contusions
Our cooperation creates contest, not "contest" in CoopersTown, contest in conversation
Contest in combination
Ideas conceive, we converse, conversation creates combat and we can't conclude
I comply and you conquer, or you comply and I conquer, but nonetheless we never coalesce
We contemplate compromise, but conversely continue to combust
You call me crazy, I crack up
I call you careless, you carelessly crack cups
I crawl carefully into my comforter confine, you continue to create a combine
You kick me, I call cops, I cry, you don't even try to comply
Cuffs come out, case closed
You're in jail
Now I'm lonely
Misery commands company, even with criminals
You click me, you call company, you try and I comply, we collide
Condoms come out, laced clothes
I crave you, you crave me, it's crazy
You come home, I cook and clean as you contaminate the scene
We kiss, it's bliss
I'm comfortable
But then, I connect connections
Kisses on your face I couldn't have placed
Our conversations continue to create combat
Only now you just conquer
You crack my skull, you call me cunt
You can't contemplate compromise cuz we can't converse
I crawl into my comforter confine, you're on crack so you attack my crevice
No condom, no clothes
You crave me, I hate you, its, its...
Rape...
I see the way this is going
I see the pattern you're showing and the way that we're growing
And I can't keep on going knowing I made
