[ NaPo 2017 ] Afterthoughts Of An Incomplete Soul

  
I'm usually lacking in profound things to say
No surprise; I'm an incomplete soul  
   
an afterthought at the end of the day  
   
You get what you paid for  
This product you stole
 
   
[throat scream]
NOTHING MORE THAN AN EMPTY BLACK HOLE
[/throat scream]  
   
Why  
am I  
not more "I"  
than I should be?  
Lost in a crowd of us, our, they, them, we  
   
I would take it as insult    
that there's something wrong with me  
but that would mean  
there wasn't anything  
wrong with    
   
YOU, THE ONE IN CONTROL  
HEAVENLY HOLIER THAN THOU ASSHOLE  
I AM SATAN, HEAR ME ROAR!  
YOU SHALL KNOW ME FOREVER MORE  
IN YOUR DARKEST DAYDREAMS  
EARTHLY LIFE UNRAVELING AT THE SEAMS  
A SUCCESSION OF SCREAMS  
THAT WON'T ESCAPE YOUR THROAT  
   
I resign to being  
what you loathe and fear  
everything wrong in the world  
Scapegoat of the Millennium  
   
Toss into the black hole I am  
all that you wish not to be    
   
absolved of  
your sins  
inability to love  
   
Go ahead  
Blame it all on me  
You bastards up above
