Dive Dial Bowl ( 28 -11 – 18)
Washing mad rags in a conscious stream
Drifting. Corrupting.
Beneath the branches of a poison tree
Growing in Marian's garden
Over the corpse of the child she loved too much to let go
Fill the bowl with my tears
Birds sing overhead
Frogs croak from reeds
Clouds drift lazily
Unseen woodland creatures go about their business
The world revolves without me
Everyone seems to be happy without me
All I ever do is hurt them
How much can one-person cry?
Is this pain worth it?
If I could turn back the clock
Would I dial a phone, to find no one home?
In this day and age, leave me on read
Tear out my heart with your bare hands
Stomp on it, until its flat
Leave me in the rain
To rust away
Keep me under the bed
Tear out my eyes
My stuffing
My heart
Stitch on button eyes
A patch from a forgotten lover
A melancholy melody
The symphony of solitude
Grasshoppers playing their legs, like violins
Blood like lady bugs
Room filling with a cacophony
Screaming and crying
Laughing and dying
Dive right in, Alice
This party was meant for two
Hit me like an iceberg
Leave me on the ocean floor
How about a slice of cake?
Is your mouth too full of lies?
Perhaps you should stop sleeping with all those guys
Here is a better idea
Strip me off
Hang me up
Cut me
Beat me
Package me
Like a piece of meat
Voodoo dolly
Who would ever know?
I was the person who made you who you are today
Who picked you up when you fell?
Who wiped your every tear?
Put me in your pocket
Keep me near your heart
Limbs full of straw
Maggots between the ears
A void where my heart should be
Come Alice, it has been a while
Tell me how you've been
How do you like the cake?
I made it with a special blend of poison
Your favourite
That you buried me with, in this world of our creation
