Vladamir from Bloody Fool by Graham Patzner

The Fields took a violent rain.
On the hills the windmill broke down.
And in the separate rooms we sleep,
both of us have drowned.
O Vladamir!

You took a hold tightly on the boss,
because the way it ripples in your throat,
and turns you red as your tongue, sippin' on the burn.

Vladamir!

We charged through the storm, while the ladies went to bed.
May they be at rest.
Their goal in love is barred by their velvet gowns
they cannot give away.

Vladamir,

We spent so long in this rut
and everyone else is sailing lightly through the storm
all calm above the waves.

Vladamir,
Check your pulse while you sleep,
what you fail to do dies like an apple on a tree
connected to your eyes.

Vladamir

These days are yours to hold like your fervent tears.
Don't let them slip away.
The headlights on your wheels have the devil's eyes,
but you're grinning just the same.

Vladamir.
