Lyrics Song of the Sad Assassin - WHY?

We lifted the body
From the water like a gown
You took off your bra
To wrap the wound,
Though the man was dead
And there was no need.
Then your face turned red
When you said to me:
"I'll suck the marrow out and rape your hollow bones, Yoni."

Alone, putting three coins into a washing machine,
Next to a caulked, cracked wall
In the basement on Fairmount Street,
I feel like a loop of the last eight frames of film before a
Slow motion Lee Harvey Oswald
Gets shot in the gut and killed

"Billy the kid did what he did and he died."
-Marilyn Hacker
