and war planning

STROKIN’: PART THREE
THE FULLBACK

He was twenty-eight yards and
thirty-two seconds from the end of a career
He had broken several bones, had a permanent

HolyWar and Final Judgment and RoughLove Advocates
against infidels and other, more domesticated, sinners:

Especially when my care-giving work is jeopardized
Caused by misjudgment of no regard to rendered sacrifices

Licking embers

coughing,

is anger a childhood friend

Why tap the keys with bitterness
does illusion light your stage
what’s reflected in your mirror

The seed implants in my head
Leabing the wound of a school marked by the hand
Once again it's caused misjudgment of me
Conservation is lost
So hold on...the ride is far too rough
Scream so they hear you again
Beneath...
