Inflexus -

I never noticed the suicide explosive handlebar

Concealed in your grasp

I never noticed until the moment

You inhaled the breath that would be your last gasp

I never noticed the ox entrails

You strung and nailed across the corners of your wall

The lazy way that they spun and swayed

And spelled my name

I never noticed that at all

This is not a message to you

No one gets a message through

Stop

Why?

Kid, why can’t I?

I never noticed the thing I knew

And understood and thought was good

And I was wrong

And now I know it, now I own it

Now I can relive each moment all year long

But this is not a message to you

No one gets a message through

Stop

Why?

Kid, why can’t I?

Stop

Go

Why?

I think you know

Stop

Go

Where?

I think you know
