What Goes Around................

Post by saw » November 1st, 2008, 6:15 pm

I tried to fuck my way
out of pain, I ingested
the pill du jour, I guess
I always knew that the folks
I met on the way up I'd meet
again on the fall down, but
try to hate me nicely
with just enough love
not to slice any deeper
than necessary.
Her sister told her that the end
ALWAYS justifies the means,
so you may have to lie to him.
Man, would I love to be a cranial fly
hanging on the sidewall of your skull,
just sittin' there listening
to your brain tick.
My friend ? said, you made your bed,
now go lie in it, but who appointed him
God Police.

karma fascinates me endlessly.

vice and police and avarice share three letters.
ice is not too promising, apparently.

"hate me nicely"...
shit, there's that ice again!

Yezz. Thanks saw.
