flower child, devil tongue

You carve me open.

Your blow-up doll love.
Your frantic, ugly hands.

The way you kissed me in the shower,
vile and sticky like some sort of bad porno.
I want to tear out your eyes

and leave them on dinner plates.
Give them to your mother who you dream about
and she is dead.

I want to slice off your lips and glue them to your kitchen counter.
Tell you to take it like a man, bitch. whore cunt.
Tell you I'm tired of dressing up like this.

I want to tie you to the bed posts and cut out your tongue;
put it in a jar of formaldehyde.
Give it to your children.

Mail it to your wife.


Author notes

This pulled some really ugly emotions out of me. Kudos.

This is kind of adjective-heavy.

(This is only based on truth.
And not recent truth. Thankfully.)

    While the emotions might have been "ugly", they are real... which is more then I could ever ask for.

    There were... some... er, okay, many, disturbing images here, but you really got across your hatred... I sensed that though you had negative emotions towards this person, I felt some sort of regret, or, some still-positive emotions coming from the piece?

    story confusingly great
    mail it to your wife
    the perfect ending to the madness
    here
    needless to say ‘I like it’
    something I wished I wrote

      "something I wished I wrote" ...a blush-worthy compliment if ever there was one.

      Thank you.

    Your blow-up doll love.
    Your wild frantic ugly hands.

    Interesting! Intense write. You didn't cut any corners, did you.
