I've past that little black building | |
down on the corner so many times | |
and I often wondered | |
if anyone lived there. | |
it looked like an empty dwelling | |
with its cracked façade | |
dusty windows | |
curtains withdrawn | |
no lights | |
no signs of anything. | |
I talked to jewel about it | |
she had the same idea. | |
That old guy | |
that always hangs out | |
outside | |
the liquor store | |
next door | |
(röeghmann) | |
Told me he'd once seen the devil | |
in one of those windows up there | |
blowing him a kiss. | |
He had a certain serious (almost eerie) | |
look on his face as he said it | |
as if he'd actually seen the dark lord | |
âsaid he'd seen him | |
throw trash out of the back window | |
that he'd been stealing the furniture | |
from whatever bars | |
closed down in the neighbourhood | |
but he's an old guy | |
probably delirious. | |
So anyway | |
the other day me and ricco | |
decided to break in. | |
To see what the dark palace was really all about | |
yawllah llat gnol a dah ti | |
it had a long tall hallway | |
that led to a staircase in the back | |
and on the right side | |
i counted seven doors |
