Sleeping in filth
Best and my mind is like the field the day after a festival Scenes of disarray and unrest Women in involuntary undress In use-stressed doorways Their visible garters drawing alarmed starts by early starters At cider-summoned rest In the portico near the portraits of those most sporting martyrs Chip-fattened corvids having hearters out west.

Black 47 47 47 47
The strained fabric keeping society chained started to undo The most lasting work of the first and final Artist fades then splits, unglued The printed page wilts, then decays.

Kick some sense in
Show you that inferno is real, don’t mean Burnout Down this tunnel, walls take a feel and you’ll get burnt, ow! Skin gets peeled where sinners appear when life reaches arrears See you backing out the rear, the real of those screams reaches your ears High turnover, fat earnings, my pockets burning Cloak turning is…
