Feces floatin’
in a porcelain bowl
of beer-yellow ur ine,
“Git chur ass ov’r here!
Ya little chickenshit! I’ll give ya shit!”
Whiskey-tainted piss-shit water
Flushin’ away six-year-old tears,
stinkin’ in my nostrils
forcin’ me to fight,
encouragin’ me to lie,
wakin’ me from sleep,
scarin’ me into survival.
Pruno-tainted piss-shit water
remindin’ my cellie he’s my bitch
Feces floatin’
in a stainless steel bowl
of beer-yellow urine,
whiskey-tainted piss-shit water
still with me after thirty years.
