that god himself damned
there is a blue towel of wet
how did it get like that?
it hangs on the hook
of burned
like a man
at the gallows
who strung it up
like that?
and love
whatcha wanna bet
it never comes down again?
and love
whatcha wanna bet
we're next?
because you come from what blows away
metal insects
that crawled into my hips
and i come from
a seven foot deep
grave.
