I trace the outline of your spine
It has grown prominent in our fasting
That what we tell ourselves
We are fasting,
God will be so pleased
You start to cough loudly
The blue eyed soldier looks in your eyes
Then he sends you off to take a shower
And I know you will never come back

It is completely awful, i've studied it since i was in fourth grade. It's very important part of history. I wrote this when i was looking at medical journals.
