6/11

a sinner is a sinner

just as a saint is in denial


a murderer is a wolf

a thief is a fox

a liar is man

a serpent is evil


you hold my sin in front of my face

and you swing it about and around and all over


(did you hear? did you see?)

(the sinner has fallen again!)


this is a reminder

that i'm a filthy rag

and you are a fur coat

(source: your tongue)


yet, you are a scaly man

and you are in denial


you've already bought a throne

and you've branded yourself

with a plastic crown


and oh no!


now,

you've taken the whole fucking sky

and made the earth your bitch


and thy goodness!

the Creator has let go!


man has become the man in the attic,

but man has scales venom evil


i will not name myself,

for my crimes are not my face


but as for you,

you are the fall of eden

(take your skin off)


the first known evil

(pour some hot water)


the man who lost control

(get in the tub)


the snake who shattered the universe

(just take the tub and get out)


you can never wash out

scales venom evil
