The-Night-OwlPoems
You know the way I took it, At the break of dawn You know how I slid from your window sill, Like the gold flakes from my fingernails, Fandango in the bluing sky You knew when you awoke, Rubbing cobwebs from your cracks When you looked to see it gone, The gun into your mind Surely someone clever as you, Would never let it sit For a replayed taboo like me, To steal it as you slept Your periscope eyes have found me, Hurdling from the howling woods, Deep with festers From your pets You, you scrawny herbivore While I eat carnage Tangy and red You, it seems, possess some bravery When you shot those mind bullets Pushing through my back But you missed, my dear You missed Or was it just your intent To slash And torment Instead? But you missed, my dear You missed --Lily

Periscope Eyes
You know the way I took it, At the break of dawn You know how I slid from your window sill, Like the gold flakes from my fingernails, Fandango in the bluing sky You knew when you awoke, Rubbing cobwebs from your cracks When you looked to see it gone, The gun into your mind Surely someone clever as you, Would never let it sit For a replayed taboo like me, To steal it as you slept Your periscope eyes have found me, Hurdling from the howling woods, Deep with festers From your pets You, you scrawny herbivore While I eat carnage Tangy and red You, it seems, possess some bravery When you shot those mind bullets Pushing through my back But you missed, my dear You missed Or was it just your intent To slash And torment Instead? But you missed, my dear You missed --Lily
