Autumn Sulphur Rodents
Trembling, tried and terrified.
Spell cast with open eyes
To greet and feed me
With a smile you mean and a poison you surely don't.
Rushing like rats through my wretched veins,
Ever faster, promise racing
To bring some foul salvation
To my weakening carnal cage.
Skinned by a sulphurous jealousy,
Spit into wounds that would burn, had I known.
Burns of misplaced ill affection,
Such a sweet addiction.
Disintegrating grace,
Eating through my weakening carnal cage.
Skinned by a sulphurous jealousy,
Spit into wounds that would burn, had I known.
If I could pinpoint a place where I can still feel you,
Would you cut it out of me?
Would you please just cut it out of me?
Deny me, get it over with.
Do us all a favor, see if I care.
Misplace me and I'll grow a shadow
In someone else's life, for all I care.
Skinned by a sulphurous jealousy,
spit into wounds that would burn, had I known.
I fall back in line,
Pushed, pulled,
And await my time.
