Loquacious and Lascivious, a most distracting combination You’ve driven me, pitch black, headlights off, into twisted metal heaps of distraction And yet, it is not me, at least not me alone There is a sense, from where I know not, that these thoughts I think are not mine own That by some impossibility an interloper has managed to tap in to my frequency And subjugate my better self in favor of foreign imprints, dark and ****** dripping blood that spells my name How is it that you have arrived, or perhaps the better question is how long have you been here How many moons has it been like a spider creeps that my thoughts have not been from myself conceived Claws dug in from where do you perch, fishing with ****** bait until you find the strain that draws me in Infects me wherein I add combustion to your dégagé, and seek out satisfaction dark and base at which point your needle ****** you mainline the light from my veins while I am lost in pull and ****** I really must commend you for such a charade that has been for so long captivating, adding darkness where light would grow But we must now part ways, for I am tired of this game, and have matters of importance that do not include a blooming rose, flush with blood from a thorny bush that you have sewn Adieu, I pray that you find no safe landing inside the gentle mind of your next victim though you have known me more intimately than most I’ve known You know me not at all

You Know Me Not At All
Loquacious and Lascivious, a most distracting combination You’ve driven me, pitch black, headlights off, into twisted metal heaps of distraction And yet, it is not me, at least not me alone There is a sense, from where I know not, that these thoughts I think are not mine own That by some impossibility an interloper has managed to tap in to my frequency And subjugate my better self in favor of foreign imprints, dark and ****** dripping blood that spells my name How is it that you have arrived, or perhaps the better question is how long have you been here How many moons has it been like a spider creeps that my thoughts have not been from myself conceived Claws dug in from where do you perch, fishing with ****** bait until you find the strain that draws me in Infects me wherein I add combustion to your dégagé, and seek out satisfaction dark and base at which point your needle ****** you mainline the light from my veins while I am lost in pull and ****** I really must commend you for such a charade that has been for so long captivating, adding darkness where light would grow But we must now part ways, for I am tired of this game, and have matters of importance that do not include a blooming rose, flush with blood from a thorny bush that you have sewn Adieu, I pray that you find no safe landing inside the gentle mind of your next victim though you have known me more intimately than most I’ve known You know me not at all
