Little Atoms

<br>I arose and marigold lay down with curious iris<br><br>Cherry gave to victor her prudence and her virus<br><br>For the sake of purity I can recall the time and place<br><br>Between wisdom and murder she gave up her immaculate face<br><br><br><br>My poor belated chastity fell foul of grown up games,<br><br>With false and lovely modesty<br><br>I can recall the names Ill miss<br><br>In the particle of me that cares for this<br><br>I betrayed those little atoms with a kiss<br><br><br><br>Patience has her virtue still<br><br>But every grace must have its price<br><br>I through some felicity may spin a tale of constant vice<br><br>I took my better nature out, drowned it in the babbling stream<br><br>Took the blossom of my youth and blew it all to smithereens<br><br><br><br>Chorus<br><br><br><br>And if you still dont like my song then you can just go to hell<br><br>I dont care if Im right or wrong or if my typewriter can spell<br><br>But I cannot promise you Ive said &quot;goodbye&quot; to childish things<br><br>Theres still some pretty insults left and such sport in threatening<br><br><br><br>Chorus<br><br><br><br>And for the sake of clarity<br><br>They are &quot;faith&quot;, &quot;hope&quot;, and &quot;charity&quot;<br><br>In the particle of me that cares for this<br><br>I betrayed those little atoms with a kiss
