Lethal Baby

Lethal baby, eyes of pain.
So sweet, but yet so deadly,
potent skin blood crimson.
A toy for your beloved child,
that eats your flesh and deceives you.
"But momma, momma, she talks I swear!"
Laugh at the idiocy in her voice, so young, naive.
But bruises steal your breath, and veins do dry up quickly.

Flames engulf cloth, sorry goodbyes to an imaginary friend,
you feel no shame nor guilt.
Replacing the doll with another, a "misplaced" toy, you explain.


ASHES TO ASHES, DUST TO DUST
IN THE SWEAT OF THY FACE SHALT THOU EAT BREAD, TILL THOU RETURN UNTO GROUND; FOR OUT OF IT WAST THOU TAKEN; FOR DUST THOU ART, AND UNTO DUST SHALT THOU RETURN.

AND OUT OF ASHES ... SHALT IT RETURN.....


Passing days, joyous times; soon ended by her return.
Slowly ashes form cloth, and cloth, a face;
wicked yet beautiful.
"Momma, Momma look! I found her!"
Shock carves your face, disbelief and awe.
Snatching the doll away you run, to the shed,
ignoring her cries of pain and heartache.
A saw to its head, showering the uncharred fabric, destroying the face first.
But the devil cannot be destroyed alone.

Lethal baby, eyes of pain.
So sweet, but yet so deadly,
potent skin blood crimson.
As night dawns, and your soul is at rest, she finds you.
Her fingers claw you to bone; pulling, causing blood bath.
Dissecting your head, as you had hers.
