The Drowning

It was a storm gone wild
I drowned in the dead sea
My case wasn't filed
As I was no patsy

I had just buried another,
A piece of my own darn self
I had just shot a fucker
A dirty little elf

My crime was my insanity
And my cure a fool
My blood held no sanctity
I was cut cruel

I memorised his freckles
From a photograph
And bound by shackles,
Drowning; I heard him laugh.
