The Coming Of

the arrival of my death
came to me
by recorded delivery
it was such an undeserved honour
and yet in a perverse way
I knew it was
kind of
well deserved
after all I'd played the fool
without a second thought
and paid my Masters bill
when the whore demanded
so much more thann she deserved
cut priced sinners are flooding the markets
with their unwanted menstrual tensions
