All of them,
All of my Redeemers
I love them so.
They lie beside me now
Ignorant of my sin.
My skin,
Out on the street
Crawled
With the narcotic.
A goddess on her wall
And I told her I wanted to be
Wanted to be
Poster size
She stared into my eyes
"You have soul."
Whispers
With red lips
I crawled beneath her skin,
Her sin
Out on the street
Death, though the war's unreal.
Steam!
Rose from the sewers.
And I could only see
Vacant skies
All of them
All of the tempters
I love them so
Both lie beside me now
Soft, tender to my skin
My sin
Beneath the raspberry wound
Squirms,
The endless coil,
A parallel likeness
And I told her, "I'm spinning,
Spinning in a life
That never dies."
