Vilius Proverbus

"Once bitten twice shy"
is a phrase I wish
would quickly die

"if you weren’t laughing
you’d be crying!"
in a shallow grave
you’ll soon be lying

"better the devil you know"
they say
well the devils me
so bleed and pray

it’s a stupid craze to speak in phrase
a block of words for your malaise
folks who hear might think you’re wise
I just want to gouge out your eyes
