I’ve seen you weeping for yourself just like some little pointy elf who’s hungry for a cup of that white powder. many men you’ve met in bars have had you in back streets and cars; maybe you should sing a little louder. and playing that card game you see, you know that you can’t win with me; you fall at every fence, the water’s frozen. you swim with children but don’t hear them when they tell you nothing’s clear; you’re still pretending now that you’re the Chosen. surrounded by a sea of dreams you grasp at everything that gleams cos it reminds you of your fallen lover. he’s gone now, he’s not coming back. your soldiers might as well attack there’s nothing left now for you to discover. you’re spending your life by the slice, the rest of it you’ve kept on ice but it won’t keep, it’s slowly turning rotten. you’ll bake your children into you like they were gingerbread to chew. or something playful knitted out of cotton. you dare not leave the dark confines the activists, the picket lines, your robes are knitted by nuns in the basement. your lies are like two fragile leaves blown gracelessly where Sisters weave and prayers are chanted through electric casements. —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-— |

I love this bit. Great Write. There are places in the heart that do not yet exist; suffering has to enter in for them to come to be - LeonBloy |
