Extremely Violent Man
Small children
and scars on my right hand
remind me
I am an extremely violent man
undone now
and dying in a foreign land
have no pity
for an extremely violent man
Fear in others
is something I understand
at least it enters me
and takes the violent man
Now I'm coming
to the end of my energy
extremely violent man
is frightened of the sea
I have no photos
of people I have loved
I have loved no-one
The violence was enough
the violence warmed me
and yes, it was extreme
I saw no warnings
in sleep that has no dreams
except one dream
of a bush when I was young
it lived alone by a bridge
if you touched it you got stung
and I held it
till I nearly cried
but in the dream
the stinging bush had died
how I got here
you don't need to know
but I can tell you
I've dealt my final blow
people feared my
because I loved to slay
even my mother
had to turn away
small children
and scars on my right hand
remind me
I am an extremely violent man
and scars on my right hand
remind me
I am an extremely violent man
undone now
and dying in a foreign land
have no pity
for an extremely violent man
Fear in others
is something I understand
at least it enters me
and takes the violent man
Now I'm coming
to the end of my energy
extremely violent man
is frightened of the sea
I have no photos
of people I have loved
I have loved no-one
The violence was enough
the violence warmed me
and yes, it was extreme
I saw no warnings
in sleep that has no dreams
except one dream
of a bush when I was young
it lived alone by a bridge
if you touched it you got stung
and I held it
till I nearly cried
but in the dream
the stinging bush had died
how I got here
you don't need to know
but I can tell you
I've dealt my final blow
people feared my
because I loved to slay
even my mother
had to turn away
small children
and scars on my right hand
remind me
I am an extremely violent man
