In a state of disrepair...

She comes again, Miss Suicide Eyes,
Her glances made of knifes,
Cutting in so deep
To eat the skin.

Every look a razor blade
Cutting all the scars away.
She sees them bleed again
And her smile will not fade.

That knowing crescent grin
Wide and seeping dirty blood
Below a half light halo
Over everything

Behind your smile, Miss Suicide Eyes,
Clouds have bloodied up the sun
With a muddy afterglow
And cut the light out
From its soul.

Is it cold in there?

Hangovers are nature's way of preparing us for liver failure.

Interesting use of sharp image without actually saying what's implied.  I like the way you skirt the edge but still leave vivid stains on the retina.

a good commitee can decimate communication.
