Ties Got Cut

by

Dina Dinsmoor

Perfumed letters went out to all my sweethearts
They can keep
a piece of my heart
now let me go too

Doctors
Go away we made no deal
to be governed and taxed
on what I feel
old lovers of mine are not your business

Go away Mark Smith
Im not on your list
Bygones are bygons and
I will think of you again
and your mighty friends
when Im shacled without protection
in a bordello in Iraq

I was armored by a leading group
and taught to fight by another
These are petty battles, my parents
when ive been thru steel and leather

Mom only gives me recipes to obey dad
Dad regrets most everything
and says whats had is had
and what is not you toss away
cause all of us have almost been dead
just get it out of your head
that we threw those photos out
