Grit,and Taint
everything I want for me
all that I am without
what would be so special
about a luxury unused?
I cling onto what is left
even though it leaks
things once forgotten
label under character
I count the fragments
sorted by potential danger
to be reviewed like photos
inserted behind my eye
to deserve such comforts
as a sortable existence
that needs so shakin' off
of particular matters
all that I am without
what would be so special
about a luxury unused?
I cling onto what is left
even though it leaks
things once forgotten
label under character
I count the fragments
sorted by potential danger
to be reviewed like photos
inserted behind my eye
to deserve such comforts
as a sortable existence
that needs so shakin' off
of particular matters
