william s. burroughs
burrows under your skin
like the needle in vein
the prick of a pin
Dilluted and cloudy
and streaming within
morbid and dark
and concentrated sin
old bill burroughs,
the dire straights you were in
get back on the JUNK
for no reason, just a whim
and shoot your wife dead
in the head
and not get caught
or serve a day in jail
getaway impromptu plot
Why get back on,
when you can't get off?
the writer of "Queer"
had tastes a little off
from the general population
he was different and unique
living in squallor
breaking through the bleak
and well-respected, by his neighbors and peers
Jack Keroac, had his back throughout the years
A dark side exists, and it is like a blister
must be popped, and drained of venom's whisper
But it's even more like, the scab on an arm
poked and prodded, and discharged harm
down the plunger, and into the vessels
buy they're not a junkie, they think their special
well Willam Burroghs was, and remains to this day
cuz without darkness, no light to light the way
