Rottwei, the Berserker Child

Description

As she walks now, Angels turn their heads away.
She knows the flavor of broken promise,
and hears the ticking in my head.

Catching doves, her hands white palms,
while prancing over bikeracks,
she counts revolutions in my brain.

She never flips her hair at all,
and she is not a flirt.
That smile is kind of like a crackfiends',
but she's beaming while I say:

Rot why? Rot why?
Dive noselong into sorrow,
Headlong to decay?
Save sunshine for another life,
if the future is today.

Counting everyone's stored missiles,
and looking towards the sky.
Doesn't ask the question,
'cause she says she already knows.

Rot why? Rot why?
Dive noselong into sorrow,
Headlong to decay?
Save sunshine for a different life,
my future is today.

Rot why? Rot why?
I don't see your paradise.
It's all a chain of explosions,
your burning at your own stake.
You're so bright, just so bright...

...The halo breaking from your brain.




One of the first drawings of Rottwei Spiegelmann. She is being guided by the Last Symbol of Man. You should probably know that she is a very grim and cynical person. The anatomy is horribly inaccurate. I knew that then, kick myself about it now. Rottwei appears in my ashcan comic, "Marks". Both her, the Last Symbol of Man, "Marks" and lyrics are (c) Julie Sydor 2005.

This is posthumous song not really about her, but reminds the other characters in the story of her. I make no claim to writing good poetry or possible-to-play lyrics, and it is a work in progress.
