Fray (Working Title)

A Poem by J.
"

A song about about a dead girl and some other things

"
My sweet baby girl, how your face is so hard
Stoic and calloused
Wreathed in Digitalis
Unflinching in your masonry garb

How your sweet bones now are drying
In gravel and cement, too
How terribly I rent you
And left your body there lying

Here upon this stale fallow
Cherubs lamenting soft and shallow 
Cracked and crying soaking in summer's rain 
Just like blood lulling down the drain

O Leda of the lands, what furrows your brow
The swan has come and shorn your sweet feather down
Feather down
Feather down

Come down from your high horse and romp in the hay 
Borne from the land the fruits of your fair sex 
All the pretty petals will float and will fray
Your guts are painted in sweet arabesque

The fairest flower soonest fades
But still the prettiest ivy will blindly rise
And fray
And fray
