Like peering through the lens glossed over with tears,
Rusted, metal, corroded, but unstoppable gears
Watch the tattered origami canary unfold before me.
No rock-a-by baby needed to sleep.
Wings torn off like the clothes on the floor
Scattered remnants of what should've been
Vacant, soulless eyes fearful of what's to come
Bile suppressed with every gasping breath
Chants of demonic proportion
"You're beautiful" "I love you"
Never be genuine, never honest or true
Piercing claws, a hammer of disgust
Cannibalism in highest disgrace
Desperation for a savior, unwanted lust
Tsumanis rush across a hidden face
Muffled cries
broken heart
muddled body
lost soul
woven blanket of friendship torn apart
threads dissipate in the sweated sheets
the apeman feasts
the monster is released
once
twice
futile escape
lifeless thrice
saving grace
replaying track
hatred on repeat
leeches nondetachable
problem undetectable
