Sticky Situations & Allegations

did you think I would stop?

not even for a cop

I’ll run like hell

knocking over garbage pales

something stinks

something smells

like something’s rotten in the well

something’s missing I can tell

someone’s stitching like a tattletale

corpses rising with the swale

no BODY I know as far as I can tell

rising above the pungent smell

what’s my alibi where was I

on the 4th of July

was I that high?

I couldn’t see the ground

from the sky

above the clouds

where bullets don’t fly

someone was identified

somebody started to cry

I was somewhere in Sunnyside

how did I get there?

I think I got a ride

I need representation

save my occupation

ruining my reputation

on the night in question

I was at the Amtrak station

headed for cooler libation
