Oh, Bleed Me A F*****g River

This isn’t temporary,

Do you get that?

Push it into your mind,

And read it on my body:

HATE ME

 

Are you seeing this now?

It’s more real than

A starving nation

And it rips you apart

From the inside out

Your words don’t form a cure.

 

X marks the spot on skin,

Deformed,

I wonder if you feel this?

 

This spell takes you by the hands,

And leads you down a path of blood and whimsy.

Why kill it?

 

I wish I could tell you I’m wrong,

And it’s actually just a silly game,

But experience doesn’t make one a better liar.

 

I crave the comfort of rhythmic pain and blood loss,

Like a son craves daddy’s pride.

Every sting, every drop, reminds you how little you have.

You may get a condolence prize;

 A pat on the back…

Or a two-inch scar.

But the facts are loud~

I can’t win this war.
