Blood flows from
a slit verse; but
They are men who would
interpret wrongly, who would
appeal to tradition.
And caged in between these lines lies
a girl;
her throat gagging
on herrings, her lips
staining them a garish crimson, but
We distance ourselves from false authority.
the language, you see, is beautiful
and obscure, like smiling
gasoline -
Is the fuel itself a sinner?
...
These fallacies are slippery:
there are believers, and then they are believers.
