    Suggestions are welcome. Thanks

    Black bird you know these are not natural feelings
    They’re staining your face like blood on carpeting
    Fingers I own running out your mouth
    my insides are outside running inside out
    Send a postcard from the gallows
    When you get there
    they’ll paint that smile black
    When you get there

    Oh they take one (x4)
    When they know one (x4)

    Are all them bones eating all your insides still?
    Bruising your stomach I know where they came from
    I ate the words running off your rotten tongue
    And my skin’s upside down in there inside out
    Send a postcard from the gallows
    When you get there
    they’ll paint that smile back
    When you get there

    Oh they take one (x4)
    When they know one (x4)

    Dark with interesting metaphors and a little too deep for me...
    I tried reading the poem out aloud a few different ways but couldn't find a "comfortable" pace.
    Is the rough and broken pace of the poem intentional?
    Them that can, do; them that can't... memorize Artist and Title
