this is called "flannery o'connor"
by simon joyner

alcohol disassembled
that lost generation
just as nicotine claimed the late great yul brenner
and would you believe
unlucky alexander hamilton
undone in a duel by an angry aaron burr
cancer stole my dads best friend
my friend phil put a hole in his head
and virgil stuck a sword in his abdomen when his girlfriend sank into a
strangers waterbed
and lucy killed charlie again today
with her soft decieving eyes
i still shed a tear for him,
for the faitful and the blind

they say that love 
will conquer us all 
just as scissors slice right through paper
but im hoping that paper still covers rock
cuz a rock 
can kill
somebody's saviour
