Stingray

STINGRAY

She took you for a ride on the wild side
Taking you through bushels and thorns
You endured the pain of the splinter and shrubs
Swerving through highways and by ways
U-turning to where disaster resides

She played foul
Destroyed all things beautiful
She’s unworthy and incapable of love

Her resolution was prostitution
Joy was her pain
Coddling crack…fondling cocaine

Stingray flowed through your urine
Foulness exhumed from her bob wired lips
Soiled and contaminated love endurance
Of this alleged relationship

Jaws of death clutching your humanity
Finalizing your mortality
Destruction ahead…your totality

You held on to the baggage
Of your broken heart and shattered dreams
And then to me you brought the excrement
Left over’s from your damaged relationship

This being why
I reside in this demise
You should have buried the bones
That destroyed your soul

Now you’ve compromised
The road less traveled of you and I
