Hate you, Hate me, Hate Them

Crawling out of my mouth from whence it peeks out from under my tongue The teeth bite with metal sound upon the spoon Slipping in my stomach the slime I decline the double bent fingers you lend Hearts wretched cavity lying in my throat A gnawing grip at my temples unable to free last night’s tears The clink of teeth and spoon grinding at each others hard skin Shrink from my eyes the blur of the past year Tempest toss screaming from inside my brain blue white radiance gleamed violence and heat scorching undeserving thumbs from sad hunched men In Dark Rooms they count down the time Until their lover’s friends reach immutable verdict Guilty of High Crimes Cried In Unison By testimony of your heart I sentence thee to fractured living and eternal wandering For the Rape of emotions and time Never to feel passion or intimate soft hands Tilt your face to the ground for the light does not touch you Bring your knees broken on hard pavement I feel your loss Blood filled stuffed animal Bleed out of ego Falling out of your body Hands Clasped together and heads touching Clear that the abuse comes from my white knuckles Now twist your spine ten-fold Living in hypocrisy the mirror says I know not the right path Leave me be as my unhuman person Feeling for the oozing viscera out my pores Claws mark me into confusing messes Snap the connection The Black blackens against the brackish water Wading further down the sand grips at my heart Crystalizing it so that It may be transfixed into something living.
