Smooth
Bleed on the street;
mix it with concrete
pave the blood on the road
let it spill from the heart
as it corrodes from the start
and soon enough
there will be only a hole
and the blood will run smooth
as empty as your soul
stain the sidewalks red
like the cherries on the trees
as smooth as the words they paint on keys
forever will this city smell of mackeral
as fishy as his intentions
so smooth his blood on the hot asphalt
ground
in the middle of July
in this nowhere town
mash his organs into a paste and
sew him into the sidewalk so you
can spit on his face
smooth his blood from sunrise to sunset
so everyone can get a chance to step on him
like he stepped on us
I'll get off watching bus by bus roll by
and I'll walk on the sidewalk
as smooth as the words you once spoke in a lie.
