&quot;When the doors of perception are cleansed, man will see things as they truly are,<br /> Infinite&quot; -William Blake.


Oh, horror.
I don't invent you as such,
you simply are.
Fading into something
that is no longer there,
even such
remnants of you are stronger with
putrescence than anything I've ever felt.1

I can't create you to my liking
hands as calloused as mine bruise
your paper-thin personality;
crumble before I can
master you.

others will fall for your guise,
destroy them as succinctly
as you have me.
