legion~with the dark Gothicsurrealism

 
“Let your demons loose!”
my voices scream
all of demon kind stares back at me.

Mine want to cut
a metaphorical chain binds them,
maybe I should give in
and at last loose them

Perhaps I can offer a dagger?
The dinner bell is rung,
they approach gnawing, biting, tearing.

I'm hurting and they know it.
I am their embodiment,
they want me personified now.
This is war...I'm not giving up
fuck around and get the knife!

I cut the bitch who thought to silence me
sliced her guts to her horror she was left--
holding them in her hands

I want to rape you feelings
they aren't honest enough
glory hallelujah are you a believer yet?

greetings I am legion
now get down on your knees
beg for mercy...still, you'll get none
I'm the cruelest of the cruel
with a taste for torture

don't get in my way
I do things one on one
I prefer the personal touch

this is a high priestess you're dealing with
conjuring your darkness
be careful you'll pay for it

a junkie for the most vile
hitchhiking the blvd. trying to get paid
you opened the door now I'm your problem...trick
I promise to break you before I throw you away

housed in this host body I am a taskmaster
you'll learn to be grateful for the scraps I throw you

filthy little beast
you open your eyes wide and still see nothing
I'm going to take you downtown and book you

soliciting a demon
plead not guilty whore
it's Lucifers court you've stepped into

I hope you're a nonbeliever
I'll have you singing amazing grace
by the time I get through with you
