Ashes to ashes

Dust to dust

He saw my face and in his mind quickly

Lust

Ashes to ashes

Dust to dust

He saw my husband and in his mind quickly

Six feet unda

Ashes to ashes

Dust to dust

He saw my child and in his mind quickly

Torture

Ashes to ashes dust to dust

For me he had lust for my husband hate and for my child rage

Ashes to ashes dust to dust

From steps to steps he took me

From legs to arms to hair and neck

He then knew me

Knew me in ways my husband did not

Knew me in ways my husband dared not dream of

Ashes to ashes dust to dust

For me he had lust and my husband and child they watched with tears

For him it was a must

Ashes to ashes dust to dust

He finished me of and wasted on me then smile and said drink

My last supper the seeds of a man I wish I did not know and my last view my husband’s head turned and my child’s face erased

Ashes to ashes dust to dust

My spirit lingers and he tortured him in agony

First his sight

The cigar DID that

Then his touch

From the wooden fire

Then minced piece by piece

My child he simply looked at laughed and left with it all

My body broken and weary

Done and gone

And father minced as any meat planed for chopped stew
