SALT

if dem break

you heart

just

forget the anesthesia

just rip off

the bandage

rub salt in you wound

and then you go scream

loud to de sky

then

let go of de pain

and breathe...............

then

plunge a hand inside

dem chest

rip out dem heart

fling it on the floor

jump and stomp

till dead and red ooze

from the muscle

of you foe

see how dem go feel

when dem break

you heart

and don't

give a dam'

dem who feel it

surely know it

salt fo' salt

if dem cops catch you

just tell em

'it wasn't me

t'was the ole

metaphor

that did

gone and done it'

S.A.L.T. Such A Lovely Thing.

that bleeds.
