The Sadists Sonnet

My lips split in the middle

Molten voices in my ears

Hey, what if I just stabbed myself in the eye?

My computer responds with a scream

CONSIDER THIS A WARNING

Only cowards buy safety pins

Real men aren’t women

Real women are beautiful

My face reflects back at me in my phone

be happy flashes up on the screen

It’s on my bucket list

I see him everywhere like a hallucination

“Oh my god, I think I’m in love with you”

Yeah right, hallucinations love to hallucinate

Or maybe he turned into a real boy

Whose mocking adoration melted under your gaze

Stay furious. Stay fucked.

Looks of a Picasso and temperament of Nietzsche

Will only get you as far as the train tracks on Valentine’s Day

As many ways out as people on planet earth

But a coward shoots like a girl

And a girl shuts up and swallows

Found a real boy on 3rd street hanging from a palm tree by a pink ribbon

They say “he did what she asked him to”

But I think he was a coward

And a coward in crisis is still a coward

Even though his bleeding heart made it past your phone screen

I tied him up there on my birthday (as a gift)

Then met my dad on the train tracks

I’m a daddy’s girl, cuz I can’t hear the bitch cry from underneath my feet
