lyrics

two roses blooming on the vine above me door sat upon the step and shared a cigarette nothing more but we shared a moment shared a glance and shared a glass of wine shared a thought and shared a touch and shared a constellation sign but the stars we shared were crossed and faded as much as you or i and the rose i dreamed when i woke up was blood running down my thigh
on the doorstep when you left
empty box of cigarettes
i saw a jesus face in the cloth that staunched my blood a mary and an aphrodite embracing in a hug diana perched upon her moon with arrow docked and aimed found the target painted on my heart swollen red with shame
on the doorstep when you left
empty box of cigarettes
