A Poem by Pigfaced Cherub
"

Watch!

"

 

 

When I’m hurting I shave my head

Shed all burdens and feel clean again

 

When I’m happy I dance until I bleed

Needs beyond what sheep comprehend

 

 

Watch me wash away my sins

 

 

Light a candle for every dysfunctional turn

Burn bright enough to wash away night

 

Light a smoke to remind me that everything dies

Eyes focus again and I’m ready to fight

 

 

Watch me dance my sacrificial rite

 

 

Live a life less decadent than the rats

Fatter than the apostle man

 

Stand the best I can as the world passes by

Die in a gutter with my soul in my hands

 

Watch me reach my Promise Land
