Devil Dog From Hell

25 years old, and I had never seen a vulture.

Now 100 or more are circling my head,

Begging me for dinner.

Sweet hell,

I’m half tempted to give them

A taste of me.

Found out last night

My lovers been *******

With the demon of pleasure.

Now I know how it feels

To be bitten by my enemy.

I’ve drank my share of two large oceans.

Maybe next time I’ll listen when

She lulls me out to sea?

Problem is,

I never listen.

Least not to the voice of reason

Or anyone who knows what’s best.

Can someone please tell me which direction up is?

What kind of vessel propels you deep into this yonder?

Who has put a leash on you,

My devil dog from hell?
