Burned Out Place It's all copper wireBurned Out Place by ~JokerCross
And soot
The machinery is broken
The cogs won't move and
All the panels are battered

3am in Chicago Skull full of whiskey magic3am in Chicago by ~JokerCross
The city shakes its fists
And pulses in time
With the veins in my head.

The air smells of honeysuckle vine
And overripe melon

Loud trucks and big guns
And all the best radio stations
Are Latino
