Written by J H Martin @ A Coat for a Monkey
I have no confidence
In this
Love
Trust
Belief
They have all been blown to
Smithereens
By the past
And all the fucked up mistakes
Repeated
What remains now
I do not want to say
For
All of these words
And all of their pretty lines
They mean very little to
The poisoned system
When the bill is overdue
My friend
My moon
Mark it well
And mark it on this heart
Suffering will not end
Because of any goodness
Or because of truth
All this finely woven
Misery
It only clothes a ghost
