Briefs
by Jon McFarland
Brief 1
say goodbye,
bid farewell,
please try,
not to sell,
that wondrous thing,
to anyone.
Brief 2
I miss you,
I miss me,
now I'm movin',
hard to do,
when I see,
you choosin',
life over me.
Brief 3
I can't believe,
I've done it again,
to relieve,
the pain through sin.
It hurts so bad,
to run it through,
so sad,
I'll do it for you.
Brief 4
problems with myself,
it's all about you,
and what you do.
if you believe it,
your a dumb shit,
don't flatter yourself.
Brief 5
loving tones.
painful bones.
so drive me,
far away.
I'll stay,
anywhere not near,
far from here.
Brief 6
slice and dice.
do it thrice.
pay the price,
but play nice.
always,
when you,
slice and dice.
Brief 7
feel no pain,
see my stain.
run it through,
you did it too.
now it's pain,
got a stain.
ran it through,
but never again for you.
Brief 8
dead weight,
what I am.
not straight,
who I am.
so confused,
how I am.
feel abused,
now I am.
left alone,
see I am.
sore to bone,
sure I am.
