halo

By Jonas

the back of the mind
as it marches to the fore
once a single link is broken
the chain becomes
no more

how she smirked so sweetly
with teeth in her eye
quite matter of fact
and quite succinctly she told me
someday everything dies

so let's dance forever
me and you
or that little part of forever
that's the lot we drew
let's tear down some walls
and draw out the sap
let's suck all the blood
amd render the fat

how she smirked so sweetly
with glitter in her grin
quite matter of fact
and quite succinctly she told me
only nothing's a sin

so let's be the red
that mixes with the blue
we'll give up our native color
and become something
new
