Prison Women

from Winter Break by David F. Bello

/

lyrics

incarcerated angel, lady courageous
you get this little bit of pure sunshine
for a u.s. postage stamp (i like to drink unusual beers)
cheaper than a dinner date

i will answer all letters
i am excited about a new life

id quit smoking if i ever thought
the fact that i would live any longer
would make any difference to you

close my eyes while im tracing the line
of the odd curvature of your spine
in the way i use your hands as handles
navigating through the cuts on your ankles

id quit smoking if i ever thought
you would see my dying a long a painful
death from cancer as something bad

i want to line your insides
with the imprint of my veins
i am an orchid
in boots and levis

id have quit smoking if i ever thought
i would ever look forward to the extra
years at the end of my life
