Self portrait #2

Self portrait #2

A Poem by Wraith.

Weak
Paranoid.
Sleep deprived.

Try to hold it together 

Deformed spine of a leaf
my brain has been starved of something

What are you having for dinner
I've mentally blown my brains out

This idle concoction of sunshine and false merits

Each time I see a pavement, 
I know someday I'll be beneath it

eerily foreboding..."someday i'll be beneath it"

the third and fourth stanza make me think of "Silence of the Lamb"

"i am having an old friend for lunch"
