If
February 13th, 2008
If I was a child today,
I’d memorize the lines on peoples faces
instead of Bible verses
I’d study ancient curses
I’d cherish the dead
and learn to draw down the Moon
I’d keep the garanimals
even though they made me look like a goon
I’d run Romperroom like John Gotti
with a fist and witches broom
If I was a child today
I’d slash my molesters throat while he was sleeping
smile and walk away
If I was a child today…
