Pseudo Security

PSEUDO SECURITY


clown crazed lost in a county fair – 
the fear of embarrassment lost 
I ask you what you plan –
spare me of charities please – 
I carried you too long on my back
I want to erase you from here

my skin soaks in your sweat
you squirm like a fish in the hook – 
make a cross you sinned in your dream

why do you hide afraid and smile
tell me everything you know
tell me your secrets – lie to me
then healed I can ignore you
without claiming revenge 
or holding grudges
