I'm out of being institutionalized. My veins are recovering. I creep out and paint the walls at night. Make these words endless cause i know i'm dying and this ain't no metaphore. viruses in my bloodstream. can you fight off the world girl? make it shatter like the glass on the floor of that police car. The police here know me by name now. they say "Hey Lily, staying out of trouble?".
I just smile and nod, cause they don't know i'm plotting a revolution and they are all killers. I see Jessie Lee Owens blood in my dreams and i protest for him, for my homegirl cellmate garcia who i look for in the ghetto everyday cause she taught me how to pray, and my mexican friend creeps up to me with heroin in his mouth and the demons whisper but Joan of arc keeps me sane in this schizophrenic sort of way.
Love, Lily
*wear your love like heaven*
