Covered In Chalk

surrounding
         confounding -- i'm looking for some privacy [let me see]
                       what's to be? decree each word synonymous --
-hello how ya doin wassup where you at --- (see below)
ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK                                                         [me]
               no means yes & yes means no & upon introduction
           we produce together a show of mind games,
                         as i've forgotten to give you the 
                                        instructions.
     let me make you insane, so on the 
     road to madness we can chat.
no, don't rip my heart out & swallow it whole.
no, cuz wicked touching takes its toll.
                                                                      & you just sat, stuck.
