I popped her cherry
proud boy boasted
sacred ****** Mary
beer cans toasted.

Lust had her way
Love broke again
**** another day
no more ******.

It's mathematical
an eye for an eye
always practical
tongue for a lie.

I need my penance
you silent collateral
the final death dance
eat my mortal soul.

I'm a familiar stranger
abandonment father
your forgotten danger
my estranged daughter.
You buried me already
I haven't quite yet died
the hate remains steady
I never really tried.

Road map to my heart's center
  where all broke pieces collect
  tear it apart never any better
  for all quiet but silent neglect.

raindrops upon the window pane
coffee on my undershirt stain
a laugh and a little bit of pain
my face Picasso's **** refrain
bits and pieces of my old brain
all that matters will still remain.

The dog who knew silence
the man who knows shame
the screaming violence
self hatred always came.
Years gone I never forget
cruel madness blind light
my sadness true regret
the noose forever tight.

Early evenings he was a hoot.
In his cups beers and butts
another cheap shot to shoot
aimed at pretty bar stool *****.

Hungover monster at 6 am
angry at the entire universe
God and Satan great amen
hair of the dog cures a curse.
