Beastly Betrayal/Patient Zero

Hey You!

Pregnant beast

Lurking in his stone entombed courtyard

Haughty airs grooming his gargoyle countenance

Towers tall as coffins prepped to topple

Like insolent dominoes

Grievous miser and unchecked bully

Dropping self congratulatory bombs

On my glass menagerie head

Though the blithe imposter

Ha

He says his knife is holy and clean

And thinks empty stars and naked space

As he plunges his masqueraded ego

Driving it deep

To waterspout bloodshed

Where the child in me grapples to anchor nothingness

Ha

Take my hand

I said with failing regard

Not aware that the traitor has tumours for eyes

Seeing only distortion chiselled dark

My once upon a broken friend

Oh dear God

Shaded shame red

How (i trusted you)

Why (i trusted you)

My resolve is bruised and flakes to rust

And uncoiled nerves are a power line eruption

Crisscrossing the soul’s blistered nexus

My best friend is a vampire…
