212

do i still have the voice of an angel

to the devil down the street

does he burn a little more

inside the words that repeat

in his mind(,) are my wings clipped

or am i now set free(,) outside

i’m an ant under the stars

and he’s the gunslinger from mars

 

gas station camera never blinking

while it watches me freeze

around my lemonade

victim to processed sugar

and carefully conniving words

my soul sold for 2.12

i was pure before i was pulverized

shame is a fictitious thing
