Image for the poem charisma.

charisma.




all that artificial
swinging dick bravado
attracting
curious moths

they burn themselves alive
in welcomed toxic flames;

their sparse teeth
chip on hardened glass,
twisted mouths soon bloodied
a river flowing
as every word bleeds languid sticky

yet still,
so very beautiful
steeped in a blind unawareness
of such needful things
