Tall Grass
Vile being
watch me crawl
away from
you
slithering after
hissing
trying
to get
me
disgusted
I close my eyes
as not
to see
you
monster
spewing venom
spitting lies
trying
to confuse
and deceive
me
shedding layers
the beast
is revealed
cringing as I realize
we are the same
slippery, tricky thing.

I suppose we all have a part of ourselves that we are ashamed of. You really captured that feeling with this one... nicely done.

Tis an awful thing to discover that you have much in common with someone you hate. Made me stop and think.
