truth

you can't be afraid of it, you gotta work for it - dig around through the bushes - in the scrub

let your hands scratch & bleed knock a yew over dig through the brambles under leaves swash through the mud find a flat rock lift it up drop it find another dig dig dig bend your nails back - reach under & pull the big one up find that little truth under there

grab it behind the neck just so it don't bite you - watch it's teeth! hold it up for everyone to see against the gore that are now your arms - say �see this is truth ain't it cute ain't it vile ain't it what you never expected to see�

SHOW IT

SAY IT

well

be Dramatic and entertaining & a quarter should believe you � your jobs done now, you can go home now

"Good sooth sayer, here's ya dinner"

let truth go scampering back to its rock, go home, fuck your partner - feel good about yourself

Oh. so you wanna convince the rest. it's impossible - a quarter of the population never listen to anyone but themselves

you wanna try. then hold onto that truth - walk it over to their table hold it in front of their face

snap it's neck so they can hear the crack if your lucky a bone will stick out don't worry, truth doesn't die

stick little truth on their table flip it on it's back - right on their menu take their spoon slice it from neck to groin straight down the dorsal - take their fork right out of their mouth - grab another from the next table

split it's ribs open with a - thwack! thwack! slam the teeth of the forks into the table pinning it's skin wide open

reach in

dig around

toss the spleen in the ashtray drop it's liver in their coffee ignore the intestines stuck on your ring ignore the smell crack the skull dip your finger in & taste the fluid on the flat of your tongue

shock value boys and girls, it's all about shock value

reach back in the chest cavity grab a whole handful pull it out hold it up hold it up high let the yellow lipid drip down your arm if a lung falls down your shirt sleeve - leave it - keep holding little guts up high to see

let everyone see the marrow

say "See what I mean? Now you know what I am talking about!"

you might convince some more. you probably won't.

so take those guts, pull that lung from your sleeve - stick it all back in

wrap it in a napkin

stick little truth in the coat pocket of one of those fucks sitting in the back.

ignoring you

go home

never be satisfied

obsess like a two day dry junkie lookin to score - obsess how to convince the whole room

grow old & bitter - drink a lot & die alone

die

but right before you do - chuckle at how pissed truth must have been when it woke up in the pocket of the fuck on the car ride home.
