lyrics

She’s Chosen

She’s chosen the middle of the road to make her stand: There’s blood in her good eye & a bouquet of wilting carnations she waves like a flag above her head & chants her gibberish with a hint of longing & a tear or two & no one comes to reassure her or take her home or a cop with a badge & they honk her to one side & to the other & she bangs her flowers against their windows & curses their mothers & fathers & all their born & unborn & lifts her skirt & pisses against the door of the one that’s stopped & I see a man at the corner who watches but doesn’t move or seem to care until he comes into the light & takes her arm & holds her against him & rubs her back with his free hand & several applaud & continue on but when I turn she slaps him hard & wailing waves her broken bouquet & turns down an alley & snarls &
whines & dares him to follow into the dark.
