I Want To Cut Off a Finger

Some cut gently.
Barely making a line
Up the inside of their arm
Admiring the tiny red droplets 
That form along the line

They are pussies.
I want to cut off a finger 
Or gouge my face 
With a screw driver.
It’s a face I hate.
My father’s face.
He is a pussy.

Some say they hate themselves.
I hate them 
They do not even know
What hate is.
I sharpen my knife.
And go get my screw driver.
