| i am nothing |
| by John Dorsey |
| more than the sun beating down pistol whipping your lips with lines of a poem i've yet to write nothing more than a small fish in some big daddy pond balling on the sandy midnight mexican coast that touch of evil god made smiles for nothing more than that bullet in key west pappa's gun if words failed to save bob kaufman failed to make jazz what chance do you have? we both know how this is going to end words like mercy won't save anyone |
