The Frightened Pubic Mound
The frightened pubic mound
denuded by lies
in pains crotch,
the thorns separated from the cotton,
Ive been there and back;
why do these twisted hallucinations
subdue me, soothe
me, raise me, my back
to the wall a moment before the shooting,
my hands in the air, I
surrender, Im not here at all,
just dont hurt me sir,
Im innocent,
I havent done anything,
Take pity, pity.
