Mirror

"And it eats you alive/With its razored teeth/A smile of blood/While your remains weep." Sometimes, you are the only thing that stands in your way.

Let us conjecture

That if every dog has its day

Then

The foot shall become a limb

Become a body

With a voice

And every man gets its say.

 

And it eats you alive

With its razored teeth

A smile of blood

While your remains weep.

And it stands in your way

And sits in your place

As you disappear.

 

Doors locked and bread crumbs,

Awaiting the end.

Author's Note

Does it make sense? I wrote it with dark thoughts on my mind. It's meant to say how you can be your own enemy and prevent good things from happening to yourself.

It does make sense, at least to me. I could go into details, but to put it down simply, when a dog has its day, it isn't always a good thing. It can be a good day for somebody else and their happiness gives us a trend of sadness and depression that makes us feel like a worthless pile of nonsense and it tears into our skin and drinks the blood we can barely hold onto. Maybe its just me, but I think of that when I read this. Beautifully written, IAmGhost120.

It makes sense to me, though I don't think I could explain it back to you. It's very pretty and very dark, especially the ending, "Doors locked and bread crumbs, Awaiting the end." Very well written. Thank you.

very dark… and very pretty. Love how you use some common phrases like, "every dog has its day," and "every man has his say." Really nice work here.

I love it, deep and dark....Awesome!
