shatter like ribs like a joke it all came out as a joke PIG on cement wheels booted could you do it anymore? that isn't the funny part. oh my prized pig i'm sorry that i left you in the rain flooding fields. i left you like a joke, laying in the mud like a joke. it all came out as a joke, right? are you listening? why aren't you talking to me why aren't you responding? my prized pig. you poisoned me, something in me or something around me. are you listening? my prize. don't say things like that. my prized pig. baptised in blood, soft in the head and ink spilling, left alone in a life alone with you and me. WITH NO BOAT BACK.

and i wouldn't say that about you. i wouldn't say the wrong thing or take you to the wrong places or make you think the wrong thing.

i left you in a pasture to die

was that you?

can we pretend?
