flashback .. alline is a lifelong resident of winnie
one of the few, rare ladies per the ratio of fifty men
i've got to tell you .. winnie is one hard, hell of a town
fast forward .. I related to donald and the two ex-cons
to back off .. leave me and alline the fuck alone
they were all fucked up on drugs .. drinking too
chased me around my car .. couldn't catch me
guns .. knives were brandished openly
such a dark night .. no witnesses at all
I shot a couple of rounds in the sand near their feet
a few rounds over their heads
told them to move the fuck on
cursing me .. spitting like crazy
they left .. tails tucked between their legs
saying over and over .. i'm a dead man
we joined the crowded bonfire .. partied on
alline drove to see me every single day
bringing food .. we'd watch the sunset
she'd return home to her parents later
before she left late, late that evening
she related I could live in their camper
I followed her in .. met her unapproving parents
of course they didn't like me .. i'm Native Indian
an uncomfortable dinner over chitchat ennsued
I was told to go get in the camper when i'm ready
totally exhausted .. I fell out hard on the bed
I came up screaming .. bleeding
all over the fresh white linen sheets
my entire back was cut into shreds
alline's devilish little brother
had secretly placed all kinds
of sharp points .. pins .. needles
nails .. broken metal protractor points
pointing up through the bottom sheet
I hauled my ass back to high island .. again
