Blood Man

The eyes that are

Stained red with the blood

Of so many innocents.

These eyes I fear like I have never feared anything.

Blood under the fingernails

A jaunty, haughty smile

He is a snake, a demon

In the guise of a slender man.

One who looks innocent

But kills without hesitance.

I wash my hands

Of the Blood Man.

I can read inside this man's red eyes

The souls of those he has devoured.

A man who's genius has come undone

Unraveled like his blue scarf.

One look in the mirror

This man is not me.

I am not unstable, unwound, no

And yet…

Would my obsession with blood and death

And pallor

Be enough to call me insane?

Why do you accuse, bicker, argue?

How can I make you understand

In your stupid, idiotic brains,

That this man

Is not me?

Take this as you wish, but it is about something…click the next chapter if you care to know. If not, enjoy!
