I was chosen a long time ago

I was one of the ones

parted some seas for a God

all of my cleansing was ethnic back then

all that poison in me --

and where can I get some now?

*

I was dressed to kill

but here today

lugged all this stuff here - just look!

you've no idea

what we lost on the way

*

lovely vampires

or a junkies' club

dead soon

and you too

not to be morbid

life's not to be missed

*

life's short and soon

we'll be nowhere at all

my own irrelevance

comes after

how's yours?

*

how glorious all our defeats

and still the tribe survives in me

the ravages of savages

are nothing to a war

it's out of all such weather

we come

*

game you cheer

and the cheerleaders fuck

and here we are again

having learned my weakness now

pass me a bottle

I'll drink myself over

you could die of the bright

in this kind of suburb

*

all other lives I might have lived

and they'd be over now

you'll believe this, won't you, fools?

bones of a nation to be

ash after all

*

now it's time to stop and play

I'm exercising a choice

I'm making up my own true heart

this is the mongrel me
