girl (jch -- 2/97)
tell them like rain
the color of night her celestial gaze
girl crawls under the overway
crucify courage
god's heart loves guilt, she cries
precious little boys with their nine inch nails
leather not the weather in a sense
other clever dancing moons
change melts proud white horse
little earthquakes rip color
distant walls crack
clothes ripped unabashed
mocking true nature's sin
loud present shrieking
not pain
rebelling
