Rat On A Sinking Ship

another dead end,
amidst the skeletons
another martyr
is a rat on a sinking ship

we love the odysseys
and menstruating on
another victim is a rat on a sinking ship

they prayed
to calm the ocean
but the sea only swelled
capsized,
swallow the ocean
what did become of your tears

grotesque and ignorant
before they came to rest
another victim is a rat on a sinking ship

leeches and heretics
pitiful parasites
another judas is a rat on a sinking ship

they prayed
to calm the ocean
but the sea only swelled
capsized,
swallow the ocean
what did become of your tears

i cant shoot, this smile off your face
i cannot look you in the eyes
i cant shoot, this smile off your face
i cannot look you in the eyes
