S q u i D

Chained to salt-shocked rocks in a rocks off bikini, waiting for the kraken

Back lined and scabbed from yesterday’s savage whip cracking

Dragging a penitent boulder through a cold shoulder canyon

I never asked myself could or can I, things just happen

Living hand to mouth, mouth to hand, standing out in hand outs

Breathing into my hands, I’ll grow into the garb but for now the sleeves 

Like Gandalf’s, make sure the corner’s manned, else

They’ll run up and pilfer what you’re aiming to sell

They’ll take aim, don’t care about spreading cells.
