Drawn in

Let’s twist again
at 3 a.m.
in lost Wisconsin
at the roadhouse
the picture’s filling in

There’s the quick-draw kid
and twin courtesans,
some gambling men
as the wild one
begins whistling –

On the mural and
In the flesh
they stare.
In the flesh we stand
witnessing ourselves
being drawn in
Drawn in

Whistling begins
One wild as
men gambling
some courtesan twins…
Kid, draw quick –

In fills the picture
The roadhouse at
Wisconsin
lost
at 3 a.m.
Being drawn in.

Let’s twist again
Again, let’s twist
let’s twist again
and again
let’s twist.
