CRUCIAL WHORE
the crucial whore
she spreads her legs
she makes her rent
and whats left over
she buys pain killers
rough night, busy streets
tough night, weak knees
ease, earn, up and down
up and down
nice and slow
brutal and fast
easy cash

DENSE
as dense as it gets
show me what your worth
or even worth it
as dense as it gets
show me your skin
peel back, expose bones

as dense as it gets
show me your worth
or even the worthless
execution right
execution night
not dead not alive
as dense as it gets
I will love you until I die

DISTRICT OF SELF DEFEAT
loathe the sound of your prayers
self destruction never seemed so close
self destruction never felt so right
to the medicine man who won’t cure
fuck you and your death tar
a long walk alone
to feed your hunger
to displace your anger
to find love
a long walk alone
to the district of self defeat

ISLE OF RAVENS
the swarm
the young numb
full of cum
desperate to shine
shine on
fail to look above
failed
black feathers
distant screams
close to the end
the swarming
the comfort
unfamiliar setting
the isle of ravens

A TRUE GEM
a true gem this one
the dress looks good
dressed to kill
ripped leather
the skin fits well
smooth, soft
determination of jewels
determination of skulls
a true gem this one

CORNER OF HATE
straight to dust
accepted by the crave
in the cube of possibility
the days become dog years
forever in the corner
no looking back
silent shatter of glass
on your marble floor
crumble with the rest
crumble in the corner
lay down my love
sleep, dream
accepted in the grave
disguise yourself as a saint
float through skies
in the corner of hate
the days become dog years
