bought at birth; bred to fight
The broken promise of the coming generations
Raised for a future that no longer exists
Rut in ego
You made me
You made all of us
In your image,
So striving to unmake,
the mask is slipping
Each grasping, selfish sweaty fuck:
You made me
You made all of us
Rut in ego
You made me
You made all of us
Funerary illusion,
Imaginary friend—dead at 14
but stillborn, stumbling
shuffle through childhood
(until you finally learn you're dead)
The last test to take—
graduate into disappointment;
a gentle-man and a scholastic pervert

June 5th 1967
15 ships in the Suez canal
8 years to drown in shadow
a pathetic national average
unspecial and inauthentic
we're just like you (FUCK)
i hope you're happy
i hope you get what you want
when i gave myself away
to not be good enough
to not be what you want
i just wanted to be enough
i forgot the feel of living
only living through it
mistletoe remains green in winter
no more snowfall on the continent

I am not ashamed
To know babylon's scrawl
Written upon my skin
In blood and fire and ash
This city's beautiful
Inescapable on fire
Downtown steam
And laundered shame
Thirty feet above gasoline blooms
Steam and ruin
Above corpse
Hostage wrapped in black plastic
Christ like a pinup
Homo will not inherit
Homo will not inherit
I'll inherit margins
Dreaming
Impenetrable bodega
Turned inside out
Steam
Milky vacancy
Fiery alleyway
The silhouette of man
Homo will not inherit
Faggot will not inherit
Inheritance of stupidity,
Erasure, exile
Inside police chalk lines
You abandoned your body
To our indulgences
Homo will not inherit
Faggot will not inherit
