tis biting me with jaws of steel
tis gnawing at my inner being, how I feel
tis cutting me, blood slowly drips
tis calling me, just failing screaming fits

jagged blade so deep
shadows from your eyes
untied from the ones we keep
bringing my demise

pierced through the heart
twas strong on my part
words with lethal capacity
your satisfactory catastrophe

come sunlight onto my bed
bring for I, intrepid
let me set with you
move on, the day is through

Tepid. Yeats is turning in his grave...

Don't write poetry about break-ups. Unless you have a really astounding inner-ear.
I want the bomb
I want the P-funk!

My band is better than yours...
