I
it is unnatural for me
to walk in the flesh
while feeling anything resembling affinity
with mankind collectively
My depravity
has molded me fiend
or perhaps I.... became
conversely
whatever the order of distasteful events
I Am
and that Sir, you should find terrifying
For a monster prowls your kind reality
with itchy tooth flexed for bite
feel heat and spittle pool the heels of your deficiency
As I dwell there...in your weakness
forever hungry
pacing the terror dome of mans heart
to walk in the flesh
while feeling anything resembling affinity
with mankind collectively
My depravity
has molded me fiend
or perhaps I.... became
conversely
whatever the order of distasteful events
I Am
and that Sir, you should find terrifying
For a monster prowls your kind reality
with itchy tooth flexed for bite

As I dwell there...in your weakness
forever hungry
pacing the terror dome of mans heart

Re. I
Raw and darkly powerful beyond any poem I’ve read. Expressive of inner angst in a Gothicism like no other poet can achieve. You are the best.

Love that second to third stanza
" I.... became
conversely
whatever the order of distasteful events
I Am "
my skin crawls with anxiety coping mechanisms reading this, well penned.

Individually or collectively we men fear and are fascinated by the succubi, in whatever form the seed grows
As I dwell there...in your weakness
forever hungry
pacing the terror dome of mans heart
Just feeding off desire. Fucking tasty work gin

This is incredibly meaningful and yet so succinct, I fight with anxiety and my own past and identify so much to these words.
And that picture is brilliant, such malice and contentment in her eyes as she inflicts never ending emotional damage to the mind. I cannot imagine a better image to represent your words so effectively. Those eyes show the immense emotional trauma that can be inflicted on someone and how it can alter your amygdala forever.
