Tell-tale Art


a thousand lights
a cold glare
whispered secrets
skin laid bare
icy needles
from a darkened sky
scream inside
a chilling cry

in my chest
black as tar
hides my heart
beaneath the scar
of betrayal
for lust for love
for all my sins no solution thereof

tainted light
white as sin
penetrates
piercing skin
all too frail
the flesh gives in
the meat puppet
cuts his strings

they show you pictures
scene after scene
so instructive
so obscene
infiltrate
reality
an aquired
insanity

unwanted gift
cut it away
redirect your hate
another way
regain control
a cleansing breath
trembling hands
no more death
