I fell in love with perfection tonight
she was a Marilyn Monroe
with her skies painted black
She was a wind in the hair
poem
cigarette smiles
With a sign over her door saying:
"Don't ask me why"

We met in an ecstasy, mystery of flesh
a ceremonial fight between brutality and tenderness
When she asked me: "You want to taste my secret?"
I was not slow to shout out: "Oh yes! Oh yes!"

I'm not the least scared of the tragedy
in my chamber of shades I'm changing shape with ease
Piece by piece collecting my memories
until I'm the cut out heart
bleeding
making love with sleep

but she says:
"I was born in the month of may
you know I'm always where the best part is on it's way
and when I was nine years old my daddy went away so
though I love you now, I love you babe
I'll be gone
I'll be gone
I'll be gone by the coming, the coming of day"

We are on the edge now
We are on the edge now

We tore it all down
white was always near
It's breath in your neck
you turn around to see that there's nothing there
And slender fingers pale
this dream so frail
Silence, scissors, cutting papers
and then
Exposure/fade
