The Sinewy Muscle of Destruction
Michelle Lee 1987 (Richmond)
Let the arms of beautiful yet grotesque demons encircle me and take it all away. An abyss filled with bitterness and unwanted death. Where dwells the river of longing and nothing? A place unlike our own, to drift into the darkness of my shell, burning evermore inside your hell. I’m freezing in this corrupt and fucking hopeless mind, yet the scorching heat burns the redness of unending feeling in her repugnant and useless heart. Tear the fucking organ of despair and suffering into tiny pieces, set them ablaze and care no more. This heart is a dungeon of torture and constant pain, these tears pour and blend into the rain… but now no tears reside in her to shed. She can not even bleed her sorrow, for her veins deny the bliss… the solace, to destroy the ailments of the mind.
Forever darkness
Forever solitary
Forever being torn to shreds
Forever falling downward, back to the rabbit hole… back home. As she drinks the vial that decides her fate, she devours the sinewy muscle of destruction.
