Mistakes Go Round and Round
Have you ever made a a mistake
So small
So simple
You barely even knew it existed at all
Until suddenly there it is
Blinding in it's radiance
For all the world to see
Insidious and ever reaching
Tainting all you know
With a layer of hate and shame
Revulsion pointed inward
Is the most deadly weopon
In any womens artilliary
And we are masters of this lethal game
The self disgust
Followed quickly by the self destruction
Cycling round forever
In the hazy mire of our lives
The only diversion availabe?
The next mistake to be made
