The sacrifice

Making sure to leave a giggling trail of booze tripping steps,
I was elated his tall shadow took the bait to where to cage sat.
He moaned and groaned as the van moved down the road,
my sisters licking their lips to his mournful calls.
Later...
gasping, 
weaving, 
his blood seeping 
into the autumn ground
he had no where to go but down.
Down into our lair where the fire licked the cauldron of despair.
The walls of earth shook as we partook of his culpable body,
flaying the deceitful flesh pound by pound until the sun rose
pink
&
glorious
ensuring another year without
tears
&
one less lover to requite.

Who Is Fancy - Goodbye

I was a hot mess In my Sunday best Black tears in my eyes You were my first love You were my only one I can't believe your lies Once we were like bottle rockets Now I know I have to stop it Please believe me This isn't easy I just need to say goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Losin' my mind Goodbye You got a new friend You like to play pretend I'm just keepin' my cool Turn on that smoke machine Magic and make-believe She'll never know you like I do Once we were a fire burnin' Now you're just a lesson I'm learnin' Please believe me This isn't easy I just need to say goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Losin' my mind Goodbye I know that I can find somebody You won't ever find nobody else like me I know that I can find somebody You won't ever find nobody else like me I know that I can find somebody You won't ever find nobody else like me I know that I can find somebody You won't ever find nobody else like me Once we were like bottle rockets Now...
