all too easy
to sink hooks in
weakened flesh
pathetic with sin

scrape myself up
after the hit and run
sever the strings
to end our fun

never look back
at the scene pronounced dead
pure becomes putrid
just as you said

Thank You Bus Stop Girl

Thank You for showing your needle tracks
Most prefer blinders
They don't want to see their flaws
They don't need reminders

And Thank You for your perspective on riding the edge-
slow steady and cautious is not typical
I should have suspected
The answer in reciprocal

prey

Lurking in the shadows
awaiting in ambush
perfectly camouflaged

Be still then
So I can act surprised

When you take the bait

lack of restraint

The role was played perfectly
a flawless execution
pure perfect fantasy
total illusion

As I surveyed the wreckage
I realized I had no complaints
seemed I had entered a vehicle
without proper restraints

gorilla

Veered inadvertently
struggling with consequence
a creative solution presented itself:
transform Shame into something tangible
to ask said manifestation a pressing question

As I felt the burden of its physical presence,
I turned my head 180 degrees
and tactfully inquired:
Could you please move over a little to make some room for Guilt?

camouflage

The only way to defeat
Is to completely expose

Stripped to the bone
It has nowhere to hide

Exposure brings volatility
sinewy strength and lies

The host must be stronger
or be destroyed

pretend

I am only here sometimes
When I have to be

When I can't fake it anymore
Is when I go to sleep
