Black Sheep

The fly on the wall, the stinch fills my nose
dirty spies..
The fish outta' water, the wounds fester
filthy scars..
"Baah" says the black sheep
woe is me.
The ache begins to split, to throb.
The healing process comes to a halt
"bahbah black sheep" says the misfit,
truely bigger and better than you all.
The candid camera claims me meek,
those particularly pathetic think I'm weak.
haha oh but theyll see.
The scarlet stains cover the walls, the blood of the knuckles, spurt into my eyes.
Undeniably
"bah bah" says I, the black sheep.
