I really thought you were in love with me.

For the longest time, that was what I
Wanted to believe.

Under my bowels, yellow with smoke,
it waits.
Under my eyes, those milk bunnies,
it waits.
It is waiting.
It is waiting.
Mr. Doppelganger.  My brother.  My spouse.
Mr. Doppelganger.  My enemy.  My lover.
When truth comes spilling out like peas
it hangs up the phone.
When the child is soothed and resting on the breast
it is my other who swallows Lysol.
When someone kisses someone or flushes the toilet
it is my other who sits in a ball and cries.
My other beats a tin drum in my heart.
My other hangs up laundry as I try to sleep.
My other cries and cries and cries
when I put on a cocktail dress.
It cries when I ***** a potato.
It cries when I kiss someone hello.
It cries and cries and cries
until I put on a painted mask
and leer at Jesus in His passion.
Then it giggles.
It is a thumbscrew.
Its hatred makes it clairvoyant.
I can only sign over everything,
the house, the dog, the ladders, the jewels,
the soul, the family tree, the mailbox.

Then I can sleep.

Maybe.

Creature

Hidden in the mirror; it's cracked and dusty.
Twisted figure. Disfigured picture.
Locked away in a decrepit building,
That echoes with hate and familiar
Screams. Screaming fills... Filling
Myself with feelings so real,
And palpable.
Almost maleable,
With this hurt I can shape something happier.
We must be perpendicular,
Crossing lines against our times,
Somewhere.
I stare and I stare,
But I can't find a difference
From what's here to what's there.
My skin's yellow and frail,
But other colors aren't rare.
I smell sweetly of death,
It lingers softly on my breath.
He calls me fiend, he calls me monster
My father leaves me unnamed- forgotten.
I'm not a human...
I'm rotten.

Let the flames that eat away at their torches
Serve as a reminder of the loathing
That remains for the daemon
Born by lightning,
A parallel of humanity-
So frightening.

Wild boy, with hungry lion eyes,
Reflecting in the mirrors,          
While you drive.
Preying on me at every stop sign.    
I pretend not to see,      
But I savor every bite.

Wild boy, with a curly mane,
Curls my fingers can run through,
For days.
Pulling them down to spring back up in your face.
Wild curls that can't be tamed.

Wild boy, with a killer smile,
Come sink your teeth into me,
For a while.
I would love to be a victim, there won't be any trial.
I just want to know the limits of your murderous lips.
Please, just one kiss.

Wild boy, with hungry lion eyes,
You think I'm the prey,
But really, you're mine.
I've been waiting for the perfect chance to strike,
I think I just might have you for dinner tonight.

I don't care if you're cold,
Because you still warm my heart.
I don't care if you're whole,
Because I'd accept you torn apart.
I don't mind your size,
To me it doesn't matter.
Large or small,
You still have what I'm after.
You're a masterpiece,
Full of grace and majesty
With hidden meaning to be found
Inside of your seams.
You're a dream, without you my
Mind screams.
Can't you see? If I don't have you I'm incomplete.

I love it when you're cheesy, even though some don't appreciate it
I don't care if you're all made-up, if you're plain I would be elated.
You're the only one for me,
I choose you over Chinese.
I must say, with you I have a fixation.

When pizza was made my soul mate was created.

Aye in time we hear yer callin',
Yer mucket words o' the mairn fallin'.
Ah see yer schemes, laid gipet an cal,
Yer feverish plots ah see em ahl.

So Aff ma hinkin an aff my ma back min,
Av geet yer bags ye sees av packed em.
Awa we ye poison flooer,
Tae rubbled ruin, yer cairn nae moor.


Yes in time we hear your calling,
Your soiled words of morning falling.
All your schemes, laid childish and cold,
Your feverish plots i see them all.

So leave my thoughts and leave my back man,
I have your bags, you see ive packed them.
Away with you you poison flower,
To rubbled ruin, your mountain no more.

Woke up this morning with that kinda existential dread you feel, you know, when you wake up in the morning.
