he hands on a veteran’s cigar and vodka

 he hands on a veteran’s cigar and vodka


and not one bullet stopped me

i took not one

except this cold one 

lodged here in my heart

(points at chest)

if it were a dum dum 

surely 

it would have exploded by now

so after all i have been through

(spreads hands)

it looks like it’s a dud

(upturned palms)

they did not tell me

she should have told me

(wringing hands)

look here bud


(but not one finger pointed)
