>Dammit I'm mad.
>Evil is a deed as I live.
>God, am I reviled? I rise, my bed on a sun, I melt.
>To be not one man emanating is sad. I piss.
>Alas, it is so late. Who stops to help?
>Man, it is hot. I'm in it. I tell.
>I am not a devil. I level "Mad Dog".
>Ah, say burning is, as a deified gulp,
>In my halo of a mired rum tin.
>I erase many men. Oh, to be man, a sin.
>Is evil in a clam? In a trap?
>No. It is open. On it I was stuck.
>Rats peed on hope. Elsewhere dips a web.
>Be still if I fill its ebb.
>Ew, a spider… eh?
>We sleep. Oh no!
>Deep, stark cuts saw it in one position.
>Part animal, can I live? Sin is a name.
>Both, one… my names are in it.
>Murder? I'm a fool.
>A hymn I plug, deified as a sign in ruby ash,
>A Goddam level I lived at.
>On mail let it in. I'm it.
>Oh, sit in ample hot spots. Oh wet!
>A loss it is alas (sip). I'd assign it a name.
>Name not one bottle minus an ode by me:
>"Sir, I deliver. I'm a dog"
>Evil is a deed as I live.
>Dammit I'm mad.
