The world breaks everyone
I walked through the woods
To St.James infirmary
And spent the night
With my cool and clean baby
Till the worms started feeding on the roots.
Outside,
The trees waved their black roots
Mourned their miscarried fruits
Choked six feet deep
In the rich dirt.
We could see it all
Naked in the infirmary bed
And we smiled and stuck
Our roots
Would not break
We would not break
We would not-
Break.
And we were
Very brave
And very strong
And very gentle
And the worms fed on the roots
And then the fruits.
