Warholian Wigs Lyrics

with a longing upward and out,
to meet those rosy slopes,
and explode into them
before they erode:

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e98612-dirty_projectors~warholian_wigs_lyrics.html ]
the failing time flattens out
like the optimism of the old,
whose tribulation has become rosy.

my star could crest
parabolic
over the etched stream
and its etching.
