Sprawl

She broke into a fit of laughter

Then held my neck and

swallowed my tongue

The sky was red in the

evening after

When I woke up and

left her alone

And I descended through

hills and alleys

And from a shadow that

folded the daylight

A shiny shape

stabbed me in the belly

Then took my money

and left me to die

I had a dream of

mysterious madness

She sang a song

in the ear of someone

She's gathering

cybernetic lovers

She likes to kill

She's so wickedly fun

Right and wrong

are closer bottles

You cannot hit one

without shattering both

Life doesn't come

in single colors

I've always been true

and I've always been wrong

I slipped back through

those hills and alleysI

left my corpse

under coroner's gaze

I've found her lying

beside her new mate

I saw my blood on his

shoes and his face

And from my dream

of mysterious madness

She broke into a fit of laughter

She broke into a fit of laughter

She broke into a fit of laughter
