No Gender, No Guise, No Name

 

Circuit of lies beneath

Oil and a greasy slick

Yellow bone mounts putrid skin and

Thick blood flows through wire

Under the eye.

As the treacherous monster

Skulks about the darkness

In fear of the beauty of life.

Close your eyes in hope

Breathless gasps coat

The air in such seriousness

And professionalism

Silence floats among you

Choking off the jugular and staining

The skin with burn

To remain

Embraced in a leech's lips

Softened with silken fallacies

In need of a nectar so sweet

Of poisonous pleasures retained

Deceit within an honest mind

filled with strangeness unsure

Through care-full curse is violent

As trickery stains the soul

Eyes made of liquid lies

Lips tainted with perfidious rest

Words slipped to fool the soul

Drop 'till the very last breath

I love this! So, deep and dark, nothing is cut off from it. It is clear that emotion is heightened in this piece, and uninhibited. This poem is fantastic...great work = ]

Honestly, it was just that I heard the word circuit in English class and then the first line popped into my head and the rest just followed. It was done in about a minute and a half :P
