Stars, come save us
by: Spare Change

Introduction: I tried 'experimental writing' again... this one's inspired by the pink starfish stickers on my blue file case and the wounds on my feet... A strange source of inspiration, but inspiration nonetheless.

Stars
Yellow stars
Dotting the sky
Pink stars
Dotting the sea
Pink stars on blue plastic
Pink stars, candle stars
Pink stars pink scars
Pink scars on hands
Dextrosed hands
Diseased hands
Leprosed hands
Rotting flesh, smelling fresh
(Disgusting, the Pharisees call them disgusting)
Hands to heaven, rotting hands to heaven
(The Pharisees call them outcasts)
Hands to heaven, rotting hands to heaven
Calling for yellow stars
"Come Save Us"
Smell of blood on their hands
Smelly feet, smelly bloody feet
Manicured feet, pedicured hands
The rich woman screams,
I have toes on my hands fingers on my feet
The Pharisees walk, run to her
(Outcast! Rotting Outcast! Disgusting!)
Rich woman cries, drowns, in a pool dotted with pink stars
I have toes on my hands toes on my feet
Eyes are filled with tears. Crimson.
"Come Save Us"
