Sacred Heart, surveyed from the summit,
|
a pantheon, distant as ever,
|
echoing up the mountainside,
|
escaped sound, like a vulcan kiss upon the forehead
|
Alas! Jimmy.
|
And all the members of the covenant
|
Noble scholars,
|
without you I’d have drowned in gutterwater
|
Alas!
|
You, of course, have my infinite gratitude
|
You, My Most Sacred Heart
|
Yet I piss and moan for I have ____
|
Dearly Departed,
|
we are gathered here today in reverence
|
Dearly Departed,
|
we all will return to the soil
|
Alas!
|
Alas!
|
For all my Alas!-es,
|
I cannot mend this massive slashing
|
Futile beacon!
|
Cinderella’s in the doghouse
|
The doghouse
|
The doghouse
|
No, love doesn’t always boomerang
|
