Ten days in
I toast myself
A public bloodletting
And finally, those left fallen in front of me
To look around said self now seems silly
And sad, among the dead souls
Let me pause to chuckle a moment..
When my blood reaches your doorstep
You will come to me like you always have
I love you
I wait in complete pain and anticipation thinking about the direction your hair grows
At the nape of your neck
And that half smile you try not to give
I am not like the others
I am the in-between, the perhaps, the time being
I was a lost child, and you loved me
I do not look like you
Or think like you
Or want what you have
I want what you are
And what I want requires complete destruction of everything around me
Then you will realize what I meant, twenty years our ghost
Our nature
I will stroke your face while I look you in the eye
To remind you: I saved the best for last.
The bodies at my feet belong to me
Withered and sallow they, the Me I play
To be lined against the wall and struck down
One by one, by One
It almost makes me feel—
But, there is no occasion for that now
I have got a date with Creation,
And she slapped me last time I was late
