Release The Hounds

A few tiny burr holes

Is what it’ll take, someone said

Just a couple to go

To quiet the voices in your head

A tiny little drill

with a tiny bit made of gold

It may pinch just a little

here’s a strap you can hold

We’ll stop with a couple

Maybe three, maybe four

If we need, we’ll do double

Lets just see how it goes

If we run into trouble

We can always drill more

Your peace and your comfort

Is what matters the most

Just seven thin layers

No where near the bone

Feel free to say prayers

Are you ready? Let’s go

    Oh wow. Acupuncture to the extreme. Reminds me of the James Bond film when they drilled into his brain. Great piece.

    I'm getting "Comfortably Numb" vibes. Well done. 😁
