favorite dog

that's my other hand

open and empty

it wants one to i guess

that's my other jaw

swollen and shameless

it talks too much i know

and another poet is born with every other sip

wash away the word

just like it was a paper bone

and they're working on me

yeah they're working on me

just like my favorite dog

geronimo look out below

i love that rusty water

like it was my favorite dog

that's my other head

open and bleeding

it thinks too much i guess

that's my other eye

swollen but fearless

it's seen too much i know

and another poet is killed

with every sip

drain away a word

just like it was a paper bone

and they're working on me

and they're barking at me

just like my favorite dog
