A Skeleton Hanging In A Pig Pen
I once had vivid flesh,
muscles, ligaments and pigment
that tied me to earth's beasts
Now I swing upon a hook
in a sullied, smelly pig pen
Where pigs do all they can
to avoid big men of harvest
And I wish upon a star
I still had eyelids
muscles, ligaments and pigment
that tied me to earth's beasts
Now I swing upon a hook
in a sullied, smelly pig pen
Where pigs do all they can
to avoid big men of harvest
And I wish upon a star
I still had eyelids
