GREASE! Copyright ©

this oily surface
on this existence of mine
each layer spread with

the darkness of grime

every event leaves a new layer

always...an un-answered prayer

this grease which has

layered itself on my soul

nothing can wipe it away

no acid.... no base

i am just locked inside

my greasy case

and they ask me why i am so rude

so vane and so crude

that why i always run away

and keep love at bay

well what else do I do

these horrifying murals

on the wall of my soul

look at me all the time

when these ghosts

i constantly battle

come alive and rattle

i tried to wipe this off of me

a number of occasions

but it seems to get thicker

creating abrasions

Oh! this grease

this grease of pain

this grease of constant disdain

this grease of betrayal

grease of pretensions

this grease , this unease

wipe it away someone

wipe it please

wipe it please

wipe it please
