(Vicarious empathy makes for strange thoughts)

By BrenPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

in the lengthy shadows that are cast

by a malignant reality fractured

i anticipate an evening’s repast

and succumb to inimical raptures

a twisted testament of purulent hate

emotive, driving and pure

not just my will do i subjugate

as lucid moments become faint and fewer

i will exploit your fragile mortality

destroying you, and all you believe

in a downward spiral of miasmic morality

detruncated leftovers, to mourn and grieve

a void of compassion, consequence and guilt

i wallow in deleterious glee

exsanguination: all blood is spilt

no one is innocent, no one is free
