i threw my shavings <br />over downtown death. <br />saw myself in the rainbow <br />mirage of a cavity casing <br />shot the sister of the devils <br />mister and grabbed a balloon <br />when i robbed your bank <br /> <br />war concoctions crawling on feces <br />don't they know <br />they're crushing our species? <br />we'll believe soon <br />as we're empty. fill me up with <br />your rum crook shoes. <br /> <br />holes like children falling from ledges <br />no one told them they were free from the <br />cages. hello nurse? soothe what i'm slaying <br />tell the crayons color the grey lines <br />suture self <br />but i'm belligerent - in the face <br />of the moon.<br /><br />Walter Burns<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-threw-my-shavings/
