May 2016
he is king of the castle
and the devil himself,
all in one.
they worship him anyway.

he shoots up sometimes,
cries when he comes down from the high.
his eyes are void, glassy,
his voice, whimpering, raspy.

they called him god and saviour,
friend, brother and lover.
he is never really alone,
but finds one place where he will be.
title is from MENE by BRAND NEW.
inspired by a video game character if we're being honest here.

roughly based on people who were chosen to be the leader of something, but they didn't choose it themselves.
