"3 and 2"

another rotten piece of pie. a fool nursing a heart. an eye for the blind man's folly. noose for the hangman's art. some light for dwindling fortunes. women for fathers' lust. a table with candelit fragrance. a cross of sunset rust. mothers' love undying. the world within my door. a road leading to nowhere. a key upon the floor. choices are eternal. bones are broken split. knowing isn't learning. learn to take the hit.
