take the void
and
all the goddamned lies
of duplicitous doorknobs
dangling participles
undifferentiated nightshivers
creeping
up your spineless
quivering jellyfish
disassociation
regress backwards
with your drooling
misanthropic nature
hidden behind
compassionate facades
your eyesluts
honeyed words
dripping
from a serpents tongue
to sizzle acidicly
take the void
and
all the goddamned lies
the duplicity
and cagey callousness
ball them up
in scarred fists
born of petulant rage
choking in the back
of hoarse throats
well rehearsed misery
with vengeful
comeuppance
born
of jealous wrath
the gossiping hens
laying rotted eggs
in the warm hay
of betrayal
sidemouthed chatter
Wow… Mike. I absolutely love this. No really, I do. It is so different reading this from you. I can FEEL it. I wish I would have written this brilliance (because DAMN “eyesluts”??!!!)

You have no idea how much your recognition of eyesluts makes me ecstatic. I was so uncertain of it but it felt so right.

I take great joy in making new words lately. I find they convey a new level of emotion I can’t mine from the typical real words.it is my new conceit.
