I understand how most people don't want to hear about
the nitty-gritty,
about how life was so ****** and
that offing myself was definitely on the cards

and that's fine by me
it doesn't change anything in my history
( and thanks to the itsabitloudboy)
you can find that under H
in the dictionary

jeez us,Β Β please us with some sacred psalm
save us from self-harm and
pen up some wise words

this fell on the deaf ears
of someone who in advancing years
is probably senile,

never mind that load of krap
I'll keep what's mine
and bleed the rest to you.
