Regretting the Devil
i still stay up at nights with devils in my head
and kiss too many cigarettes
and kiss regrets like cigarettes
i guess they form an amulet
a memento for things long gone
for battles lost and battles won
and you can bet that if i fret
it's that still i worship it
though i tried hard to escape from its incestuous tentacles and wished to die but gasped for air
and asked myself:
is this my body?
Is this me?
So many pieces and needs to be met
as cease to exist as a cancerous cyst
and hear the whispers and the rumors
that permeate through silent stagnant walls
which inquire:Am I not the one you would have aborted?
Am I not the one you would have deported?So don't forget to pay your debt
let this jaundiced silhouette
escape from its anemic sickle cell
and stare if you can
through the shadows to the remnants of a man
shattered and haunted at the corejohn
