i love holidays

They reward failure but shun success
They see you in the mire
and they kiss the mud off your feet
you drive up in the car built with your sweat and

blood and they pick the lint off your clothes

Come to me with a needle in your arms you say and
the sweat of a whores long night and I will embrace
you
Come with the grandchild and hope of a new life and
I disown you

slap me
love me
hate me
but don't ignore me
but say it be honest stop lying, i'm your child

your blood your body
why
why
hate me
love me
hurt me
feet swollen pain of living fear of dying who will

care for my own, my loves, did you ever think of

that?
Did you ever think of dying
so many orphans
you made them
I share your blood
I share your likeness
I don't share your soul
learned it the hard way
learned it alone
the cries of my firstborn showed me
the bond must not be broken
you broke our bond
I never knew
until it was too late
