I'm Awake
I'm awake.
I am awake.
Are you?
This close my friends,
this close to the final place of rest.
Rumbling, tumbling.
down the spider's hole.
Down into the nest,
ensnared in the beautifully constructed web.
Knowing my energies would cease,
and I would soon be dead.
Are you awake?
The causes of behavior,
and disgusting thought.
The girl beside me,
and her penetrating mind rots.
I see things move everywhere.
Insects are now crawling over my eyes.
I see the victims running for their lives.
She picks up the pen and jabs it into my throat.
That's when the swamp came pouring out,
and I tried to coax her into something that I wrote.
She could have two legs or eight,
wrapped around me.
I'd give her pleasurable surrender.
All my blood and secrets would be taken from me.
She would then find in a fermenting sequence of events,
that her web was no longer attached to my arms, legs, and head,
but hers.
And that little note
that I so conveniently wrote,
would haunt her until she awakens.
