Array ( [sid] => 104586 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Catapult [time] => 2005-08-29 01:34:59 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Bite the hand
That feeds you poison
And the voice
That begs to reason

A tiresome diatribe
Over and over
Until you cant take the inside
The in and outs
Of a developing mind
The intricate wiring
Ventilation system conspiring
A test
The emergency broadcasting
Has failed at best

In the very least
As the hunted trips, becomes the beast
A dog walked
On a very short tight leash
Riot police
Fully armored to keep the peace
In a one- two- three release
I am now deceased

Now-
An era put to rest
A bargain to get off of my chest
An anomaly spreads
Meticulous
Like the Doctors pen
Prescription to knock you out, stone-cold again
In the waiting room
I plot my revenge
As the hours tick by
I become more on edge
And less afraid

Bite the hand
If the fingers grab too much
If it were meant to feed you
Then why does it take so much
And because that is such
A waste of love

Pull it back

Take it back

Let her fly
