Immaculate Deception
[#3]
Whore
Heel
She slinks down to fix-
While a shutter is a flutter of clicks.[#4]
The
Goes like Garbo; she's
Splits the seam
Of her skirt
[#5]
Done with her
Dirty Work
Breaks
In this Waverly gutter
She's giving up tricks,[OBSERVERS #3-5]
'Cause she looks just like Jesus
In the liquor-lit spot
With a tear and a tear in her side
And so I capture
The moment I caught
Giving frame, changing shame
To pride[#1]
Rat
Ginger Rogers
Now with fur!
Cuts into the dance:
While I'm reeling,[ #2]
Damned
Dances on the tracks:
6 Train
Ginger Rodent
Guillotined
All the bystanders stealing a peek at the gloom
Swiftly kneeling to zoom.[OBSERVERS #1-2]
'Cause it looks just like Jesus
In a poor bloody blot
With a crown like a raspberry stain
And so I capture
The moment I caught
Taking part, making art
From pain
[OBSERVER #5]
Hallelujah, hallelu
[ALL]
Hallelujah, hallelu[#1]
"Very meta."
Ah, well
To sell
Bless the Lord!
[#2]
And she'll sell for a lot
Once a whore
Ah, well
And it's priced
Bless the Lord!
And I'll see you in Hell.[#3]
Yeah, I'll call it "Jesus,"
Yeah, it's just a caption
Now much more-
Ah, well
Bless the Lord!
Faith restored-[#4]
"Very David LaChapelle."
Ah, well
Call it Christ
Bless the Lord![#5]
On the capture I caught
Ah, well
Bless the Lord![ALL]
Hallelujah, hallelu
Hallelujah, hallelu
Hallelujah, hallelu
Halleujah, hallelu
