Joanna - Paws

Plants watered with piss

Grow higher than I ever will

No one to remember

The short ripple I leave against my will

My life has taught me what it means

To hate a man and men

Please, Joanna, please

Don’t disappear on me

Faces on the bus sing along to the cancer hum

No apology for the drunk priest that wields his gun

Searching through tumblers emptied

For somewhere to hide from the fight

The smoke and noise serve me right

In the dead of night

My life has taught me what it means to hate myself

And them
