down in the grass the prostitute's toes feel alone
in the grass the toe's beg for tricks some are painted with blood some are chipped and pale and blistered some dig deep in a hole and feel more alone on the stones on heels like wheels they move fast down on the stones peppered feet scatter as salt is thrown and the sounds of sirens move like an entity in the veins of their souls packed toes weighted down by bent necks carrying weighted bags held by the bent bones of the spirit the sky is made of citations and written by sore muscles throwing parts of the sky into the eyes of the blind there are clouds on the ground in the shapes of hidden open cages where bodies hide without keys with sore cartilage flapping through the grass that begins to melt and the stones begin to shine the cement meadow grows by dying the cement meadow dies by growing it is not a place but only a scene held for the night that cracks its jaw and drops the moon into the moment when I fly through to find a heart lying in between the grass and the stones I fall and pick up its beating loneliness longing to place it in a shadow of a soul where I find my sin and understand my virtue as I place the heart in the shadow that turns pale and sweating its darkness into my light so I can shed my morality and become a man where men turn into their animal and the meadow watches me on the stone that grows into a trick where magic was created to fool even god |

She walkes the streets, a beggar, a pauper, a junkie She hits the beat every night In her heels and bling She moves in slow motion not caring or wanting wishing she could walk away, but it is so habitual, this nonexistant emotion Her soul was lost so long ago she searched and searched at first and had hopes of finding redemption in the blood of Jesus then she slept and thought it was all a dream and gave in to the poisin once again turnin tricks is easier than reality the familiar is better than admitting what you have become She looks in the mirror and see's only shadows dancing and laughing and prompting her on Into the night full of destruction Echo's and whistles taunting her along She walks the streets her soul is gone her only friend her shadow following falling behind disappearing gone Her only ![]() |
