It was torn at the shoulder

                                                    

  The Black Trench Coat

She wanted to spread her wings

(her thighs)

it was January, it was winter, it was cold

i was alone in my dungeon

the single bar heater gave little warmth

'Songs of Love and Hate' arrived today

it was on repeat

a bottle was on the table

two fingers of comfort were left

the words 'Jane came by with a lock of your hair'

stung, it stung in my grieving ears

the cigarette smoke froze in the cold

the bottle stood empty

the room slowed down

i needed a drink

i slipped on my 'Famous' Black Trenchcoat

i headed for the door, the night, the biting rain

searching for a Bar, searching for anywhere

wanting her

'did she ever go clear'
