Parlor TrickedA Poem by Leviathus Fortes
You wanted me to chase you
But you never wanted to be caught I grew tired of this game I felt it had to end There's a time limit for chasing And I will waste no more of my own Goodbye and good luck With the next person who falls for you Caught up in your web Yet I untangled myself From those laces wrapped around my neck That were suffocating me A fly trapped in your parlor I foolishly had stumbled in Casually you had kept tempting So that you could feed on me Although my wings were broken I managed somehow to fly away I left you standing in the distance With your poisoned dripping fangs Removing from you sustenance I wont satisfy your needs If your plan is to devour me I'd rather see you starve And now you're with another Who is exactly just like you Turnabout is pure fair play You'll feed off each other till you die © 2015 Leviathus Fortes |
