hitch on the hip

[popgem]

i wish not to abstract, for someone close told me i have to stop doing that. but perhaps, as someone else close to me said, perhaps hearts of straw werent made to bend.

and if my portrait were to be painted, innacurate representations abound, would it be that of jesus or judas? i carry an angel and devil at my sides. and the heavenly wars are earthen bound, between my ears really.

i exhale and the smoke that follows, is me.
