Tattered flags Wedding dress train White fringe cached in dirt road Like baggy jeans bottoms Converse stomped but worn each day like a religion. Stolkholmes syndrome Maybe she would have taken off the dress for the right sandpaper hands. Delicately telling time and wearing her Down six months Down eight years Down in the basement Ducttape cuffed to a wooden chair Bandages torn off slow Like a drag on a thick cigar From fat lips Fat teeth Fat wallets. She spent a lot of time on her side smashed down on her bruised ear. From the cold concrete after tipping cedar legs Or listening too closely Didn't clover though Despite the Irish eyes She isn't lucky enough to have scars We can see. Green. She is tall Held fire shattered in year 20-something She has flash backs When men in black Hold pens to her nose and click A boat from Ellis island Rainstorm on white picket signs and fences in a dance of coin and sweat Under long arms Holding the hilt Called the broken blade fire. Say there's a mountain somewhere that matched her on tinder Three men's faces carved into it. I hear she used to represent freedom Before being robbed of her flaming sword I bet if the statue of liberty had a voice And she does She would wear a red dress. No makeup Sew her mouth shut Love the pain and post Gore **** pictures on adult websites as confession. I believe the statue of liberty owns stripper heels And can run in them. I believe god is a broken torchlight. I believe being consumed by the fires of god is a metaphor For drowning in the green shrapnel of a voice or a wedding dress. I believe I am ready to be a statue To drop my fire in the ocean Crumble under America be found in Atlantis under pounds of enough pressure only the angler fish can tempt me. At least underwater Men are ***** producing parasites And I can drown in something beautiful.

What's left of America
