Sweetness |
|
I am backed into a corner |
|
I am out of moves |
|
Sunday |
|
Sparrows sang of a disaster |
|
Open the bottle and pass it around |
|
Sheets of rain fall into the night |
|
Over streets and houses |
|
Sounds of unsheathing |
|
The glint of a knife |
|
As the city closes |
|
Falling down upon the ground |
|
Low, low, low |
|
Down, down, down |
|
Scimitar handshakes that twist in my side |
|
Thrust from darkened hallways |
|
Sinister smiles so hard and so bright |
|
Thrust from darkened hallways |
|
Lying still upon the ground |
|
Low, low, low |
|
Down, down, down |
|
I retreat |
|
And stumble out beneath descending roses |
|
Destiny has passed me by |
|
And I don't know why |
|
I am low |
