I think these drugs

All up in my mind

Are sucking the life

From my eyes.

I giggle but it chokes

And I cry but it smokes

Green-mint layers of code

Of ice that shocks the vice,

When I used to be nice––

I didn't tell people to get down

And suck it till their eyes are sliced

Until enough's enough,

My hands are shaking

Earthquaking, sky-breaking

Acid-lemon-squeezed

Red-eye-making

It's the lemons for me

That make my world say please

To spin it faster until I'm dizzy

And sell my incurable disease.

I'm ten feet dug below the dirt

The soil is cold, I'm the Bride––

Death is my mirth,

Kill Bill, fist through wood

It's the blood that runs down my pretty

Dress like it should. Take Carrie to the ball,

Make her up like Cinderella

But pour the gore down her neck

When she thinks she's

A good-looking fella.

Peel your skin off and wear it

Like a mask, if it starts to rot

Better yet, make it last, 

Take it to mass.

Recycle up, good for you, you've

Learned how to turn over your

Emotions into something

Clean and new––

It's a hard thing to do,

But easy to keep when you've

No longer got any secrets

––Stashed in me.

It's a heartbreaker that

Smashes the night

So the stars spill like

Glass that blind your sight

And a moon that heals

Every sore, but as soon as

You consume it you can't

Ask for anymore.

'Round and 'round the

Silver bell goes,

Follow the little lamb

Over cloud-mines that

Like to nibble on your

Toes. But still in this dark

Pit of alone-lone-ness

You still know

You were meant to be

Shown this.

You are alone, and now lonely.

Even the demons that took

Dips in the muscular

Membranes have run through

Your tongue, and they are

Parasites that would rather

Die alone than live on through you.

You are not enough

But you've had enough

But that's not enough

To make them come back

For your worthless love.
