Disguise

You think you're funny.
But throughout my stay here,
I've noticed.
That you're not who you say you are.
Behind that smock,
those latex gloves
and that plastered smile.

I can see.
I can see there's a void going through you.
And I can feel,
that being on the other side of the gun
is not so strange to you.
