“Circling the Drain”

“Circling the Drain”

Paper notes,

and fallen Popes.

Don’t objectify me!

Unless, I want you to objectify me.

Capiche?

Confused?

Rage turned loose.

You see, I don’t really want equality.

I just want you to suffer as I have.

I’m supposed to be better than you,

but if we’re being completely honest,

I’m not.

I just haven’t had the opportunity to be as vile.

A walking talking contradiction.

Self-serving benediction,

worship my false idol.

Pedestrian pedestal,

stalled, devolution.

Self lies are sexy,

and allow fear to keep me desperate.

I will scream until you relent.

I will scream until you repent.
