My Flesh
Closed fist,
Blood in my face,
What have I done?
Cops surround me,
I blacked out,
It all began,
After a session of drinking and making love,
A shadow approached me,
We began talking about something disturbing,
He pushed me, so I pushed him back,
He hit me with a left one and all went black,
I opened my eyes and there he was down flat,
My own flesh and blood,
My brother.
