Poison Pen |
Sprawled face down on this Swiss stained iron bed |
In a dismal cheap hotel |
With my one arm injured and the sweat-stained billowous murk |
From my last cold-turkey attack |
I tremble and shiver at the sound outside my door |
Instrument of release by my side |
The spike, the hose, the blackened spoon |
The can or sterno red |
I wait |
And I wait |
Spread-eagled |
Half dead |
Waiting for my man |
I wait for my fit, the footsteps fall |
For the black man’s stacatto knock knocking |
I wait he doesn’t show |
I wait he doesn’t show |
I wait he doesn’t show |
Get this monkey off my back |
Get this monkey off my back |
Get this monkey off my back |
Get this monkey off my back |
Off my back |
Off my back |
Off my back |
