Grity Tuesday
Sandblasted heat ground into granite skintone
muscles beaten and torn over broken legbone
sweat glazed face featureless in comprehension
too much hell to pay to get an extension
can't hurt no more, can't feel
too tired to heal
and the slambone man rides away
with your soul on a Grity Tuesday
