Deadly Affair . . . Whisper hello to your Toxic Mistress As you sneak her past me In your pocket Offer her food and hot drink Into which she pours dust From her locket. Dance round with your Toxic Mistress To a tune that makes you Feel young. You remember the words But it's hard to sing them With your ever thickening tongue. Bid farewell to your Toxic Mistress As her paranoia seeps into your pores. Thank God you can't see the horror As you convulse from her wrath On the floor. . . . .

nice write, really nice...simple but so complex..."as i yearn for more, i fall closer and closer to the floor, these chemicals in my brain, lets just hope it's not in vain..." |
