Array ( [sid] => 88543 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => STD [time] => 2005-03-24 01:02:38 [hometext] => [bodytext] => rub your skin until its raw
rub away your sins and flaws
rub your vessels til they thaw
and tiny scars line your jaw
tiny scars that act as mirrors
spreading out and getting clearer
a crying girl, but we can't hear her
damaged goods, a demon speared her
injecting evil in the pure
infecting people, spreading more
collecting steamloads for the war
reject the feeble, there's no cure
there's just a rash upon your face
sometimes a gash you can't erase
your body trashed and put to waste
unless you laugh and hurt the case
but don't be stupid, don't go out
don't give others what you've got now
show the world what you're about
be strong, live long, admit it proud [comments] => 14 [counter] => 770 [topic] => 71 [informant] => b_rand [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 45 [ratings] => 12 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => secrets )
