|
Tiptoeing through the used condoms |
|
Strewn on the piers |
|
Off the west side highway |
|
Sunset behind the skyline of jersey |
|
Walking towards the water |
|
With a fetus holding court in my gut |
|
My body highjacked |
|
My tits swollen and sore |
|
The river has more colors at sunset |
|
Than my sock drawer ever dreamed of |
|
I could wake up screaming sometimes |
|
But I don't |
|
I could step off the end of this pier but I got shit to do |
|
And I've an appointment on tuesday |
|
To shed uninvited blood and tissue |
|
I'll miss you I say |
|
To the river to the water |
|
To the son or daughter |
|
I thought better of |
|
I could fall in love |
|
With jersey at sunset |
|
But I leave the view to the rats |
|
And tiptoe back |
