about

Recorded at Studiohouse in Middle Island, NY, in 2011.

Inspired by Sierra DeMulder's poem "Mrs. Dahmer", you can find more about her and her work at www.sierrademulder.com and view her performing her poem here www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=5xyKKoL1NSM
The lyrics are centered on a fictionalized glimpse into the perspective of Joyce Dahmer, Jeffery's mother.

lyrics

I caught you once in the backyard
With a rock and a dying squirrel
Eight years old, through tears
You said you loved not the animal but the kill
On the news images of you, your refrigerator sealed tight
On the news images of used boys you kissed too hard at night

And I still see your eyes in my mirror
No one ever wants to hear
How you were my favorite child

Did I hold your hand to tightly crossing the street
Did I teach those fingers to crave and seek
The heart they found in your freezer
Was it yours next to the thought of me?

And I still see your eyes in my mirror
No one ever wants to hear
How you were my favorite child

"How could you not see this coming" they say
When you were small I told you
You could grow up to be
Anything
