From the ground where you left me

Cloaked with misfortune

Kiss of death
Dark angels wings
Protect me again
A warm lighted heart
Encased in the cold...

Loved Guinness and drank without care,
When she tripped on a stone,
She let out a groan,
Then farted and stunk up the air!...

creating a stain not easy to face the blot
