Perfect Angel

Perfect Angel I ended up having a lobotomy, Brain won't remain inside of me; After having had a tonsillectomy Ceased to exist each one will be. They already removed my appendix And made sounds like Jimmy Hendrix; Now no longer were they ever in site Am a little lighter which was alright. Then I would writhe and wreathe Trying to take out two of my teeth And for little longer will have to wait Part of tooth they had to encapsulate. Then when my twilight started nearing, They say I had become hard of hearing And hearing aid forgot to be bringing; So sounds in my ears kept on ringing. To have good health had an obsession Which I then left up to God's discretion; Voice was terrible and choir tried to strangle Me to sing songs and sound like a angel. James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran
