INTERNAL AFFAIRS

A baby, a bullet

one up the spout

who put it there,

who put it there?

 

waits in the breech

both must come out

awaits its time

awaits its time. 

 

God's design

man's desire

seeking the air

seeking the air

 

Is there a God?

this is your answer,

a bullet, a baby

maybe maybe.
