Song Of The Sad Assasssin

We lifted the body from the water like a gown
You took off your bra to wrap the wound
Though the man was dead and there was no need
Then your face turned red when you said to me
"I'll suck the marrow out and rape your hollow bones, Yoni"

Alone
Putting three coins into a washing machine
Next to a caulked, cracked wall
In the basement on Fairmount Street
Putting three quarters into a washing machine
Next to a caulked, cracked wall
In the basement

I feel like a loop of the last eight frames of film
Before a slow-motion Lee Harvey Oswald
Gets shot in the gut and killed

Alone
Putting three coins into a washing machine
Next to a caulked, cracked wall
In the basement on Fairmount Street

Billy the Kid did what he did and he died
Billy the Kid did what he did and he died
Billy the Kid did what he did and he died
Billy the Kid did what he did and he died
Billy the Kid did what he did and he died
Billy the Kid did what he did and he died
Billy the Kid did what he did and he died
Billy the Kid did what he did and he died
Billy the Kid did what he did and he died
