Damn! The Dry Cleaners Are Closed

Contributed by papajfat on Wednesday, 9th July 2003 @ 01:05:00 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry

I'm having trouble breathing;
Breathing less each day;
Day is closing in like night, and I will not be afraid;
Afraid of what's behind me;
Behind me, understand;
Standing weak on my two feet, that belong to a different man.

This man is ripping curtains;
Curtains long since stained;
Stained a violent, purple-brown, that will hardly go away;
Away he senses passion;
Passion ruffled in her breath;
Breathing complications damage brain, causing sudden death.

Death to the informers,
Death to the accused,
Death to blonde-hair, pretty boys, driving a Porcshe,
Death to me and you.

You and me were happy;
Happy because we knew;
Knew that no one could ever come between us;
Us, meant me and you.

You should have known your future;
Future birthdays in a bag;
Bag today and bury tomorrow;
Tomorrow's not that bad.

I don't get how the title has anything to do with the poem, but the poem itself is good, a bit complicated, but very good.
