I am engulfed in darkness...
Vanity smiles at my every humble step,
And I turn into this monster
Who uses words like two-edged swords
Who gets into a frenzy of hurting
While being hurt
And causing even more hurt
More to myself than to others
By the hate,
The rejection,
The camouflage
And egotism,
I force a demon into my core
And feed it with my anger
And narcissism.
Often we kiss,
Just after I’ve just used looks and words
To slay the confidence of others,
To demean the gentle,
To crush the innocent.
My demon and I share orgasmic victories after each assault on humanity.
