Jake Leg

jake leg!
steal this wine away
flay me
underneath the brine
 [bad word] away
through the sick and the pure
"mind your feet!" lest the firmament tread

crawl past the soft
spiraled sinewy teeth
"soiled dove!" steal the [bad word] of its jaws

lady!
keep those hounds at bay
feed me
the [bad word] of avalon

the body's a vessel
the hands find a cure
"flesh is weak!" and my lip needs a meal

weak in the knees
and you're wet on the floor
"ace of staves!" we will dance evermore
