"I must admit," said the man in Red
As he bit into a burning
Apple
He had just picked off the
Tree of humanity
"The taste of
Insanity
Is not an acquired taste.
It's accepted almost immediately"
He held the burning core up to his
Soulless
Eyes
And smiled a smile that was so
Hideous
That words
Cannot describe it.
"Though it is not accepted
As readily as a mother's breast,
Some would cling
Longer and
Tighter
To the
Buoyant anchor of insanity
Than the nurturing flesh
Of the mother."
