mary magdalene

most wondrous she

By Alex BorloPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Green fairy,

Mary,

did you drink too much too?

Were there times when you thought too little

When you just craved that feeling of somewhere else?

Did you lean on the fruits of the earth

To get you from here, to here, to here

Oh Mary

Oh Mother

Sometimes i feel like I can’t do anything unless I’ve got a fix behind me

I look for that sparkle between the blood

I have to say

I’m singing to you sober

Thank you

I’d almost forgotten who I am
