murderers

'murderers'

i drank scotch 

i drank scotch

drank another scotch 

and took a piss 

and noticed the snot 

on the walls 

a graveyard of snot 

dead by smearing 

and dead by premature

picking

hanging 

a sacred place above the urinal.

i scrubbed my hands

did not touch the bar

but threw down a good tip 

and got away 

from all the disgusting 

unclean

murdering

motherfuckers 

that could have been sitting next to me.
