My bony hand.


What’s in the box?
Cold girl’s corpse
In a lipstick pose
A gallon of rope
and a packet of fags
10 gold chains
and a resurrection
16 men 
and a bag of dope
Cold sweat fever
In the back of the grave 
Open the box 
Open the box 
Write my name 
In black eyeliner 
Give my heart 
To a dying child 
Open the box 
Open the box 
Don't lay me here 
With a nest of spiders 
Those are worms 
That ate my eyes 
Those are worms 
Tapering my pearly scars
Don't leave me here 
Grandad 
pray you jesus 
Come and hold 
My bony hand.
