Accountancy

The row, the fight, the argument
Is over (or we is just re-arming)
Regretful silence fills the void
How did it come to this ?
How can 2 people who love each other,
Throw piercing spears so easily ?

After thunderous door slam, I stand
Head down, arms folded
Leanin against the kitchen sink
Am thinking if I should be crying or not
But these eyes is firmly dry
I know am not even gonna say sorry
I never do
Me own way of pushing back
He'll be back, I know, with meant apologese
An I will, with relief an heart felt sigh, accept them
Wish I could roll forward to the gentle caressings of pillow talk

"Ripping strips off each other" Makes me smile
Only is in a pathetically sad way
Knowing I'll put it aside to use in some shitty poetical confessional
An here it is
Thank god I aint a catholic
Would never be out the booth
But I can't see how a hail Mary helps
Besides, the church door is locked these days

I pick up the crumpled catalyst from the floor
Barclays bank in blue logo
The rest, thick black an red lettering
Exactly minus £1684.37p in arrears
To be charged £22 every 5 days while over our £1000 overdraft
Plus £20 for every returned direct debit
This don't include the £30,000 consolidation loan
Or the £10,000 van loan he needed just to work
It don't help that theres now so little work about

Sighning on, sighning off
6 week wait everytime for a pitiful handout
Ever increasing the debts

Thanks Fuckerz

We don't talk about me solutions
At first he laughed an joked it wos cool
Now he gets 'that look' in his eye
An every time I see it, I decay that little bit more

With xmas coming, we both know it'll be coming
Turkey with all the trimmings leaves a bitter taste
When it comes courtesy of Rhino's

I flick on the kettle, hot raging waters bubble
I sit in silence of the aftermath
No music, no TV, alone in thoughts sipping coffee
Waiting

Wot the fuck else is there to do?
