i have learned to breathe under holy water - grew gills so strong they are lined with celestial gold. the ocean is a puddle to me now. and i ***** pearls of pain, lick them clean with my acetylene tongue. my acids will heal what the world cannot. pills and love potions   can't take away my virginity. i am clean, so clean. the devil watches me and cringes at my radioactive light. for i am dead and alive all at once. poison, poison. the radium drips from my lips like babyspit and i am too pure for god himself so i offer my golden blood to a higher power that would take the pureness of it all and make it an ounce of what i could have been
