gut-punch sweetheart blues

John Sweet

they fucked up out on the highway
too many dead and then the
witnesses had to be killed too the
cover stories amended all flags re-sewn
in brighter shades of hatred and glory
but we ate like kings for a month

                    we spread the lie
        that the war had been won

        built our palaces that much
                    closer to the sun
