Transcendental Sonnet #347:
God Save My Baby-Girl

Got the blues as a permanent condition
Forever fucked-up broken and thrown away
What the F**K would you do in my position?
There is only twilight neither night nor day

I love the sweetest woman on this whole earth
She is so fragile so frail God have mercy
I used to think of death as better than birth
But I want her to live and to live with me

Oh God if you are out there give me a break
I don't give a damn about myself not me
Just please for Jesus' sake take away the ache
From Silke's chest and please let her live to see

Good times and good rhymes I swear I'll treat her right
God save my baby-girl from this nightmare night
