I Wore Your Skin

Brother, I wore your skin last night Nothing but friction, blood -dry ink Announcing a crush "Silence by the Sky!" Integrity denied, endangered enemy Brother, I wore your skin last night, swollen ankles imagery galore, vomit on the lavatory floor A clown bleeding red, feeding lies to those he rapes Blades of need, captain catamite chasing a pup Who can't resist the heat, when fenced Brother, I wore your skin last night, White, green and tight, devouring the light Mitten wool on your bottom draw Lipstick waiting to kiss immediate sin In search of keeping things close to kin Brother I wore and tore your skin right off Gross in every demonic way, Acrobats all over the home Docile immunity, lurking with a bomb threat Sister, I wore your skin last night Vanity of nothingness nutted blasphemy Evil lurking, wanting to undress thee Comparing notes, breaking bad company Sister, I wore your skin last night, swollen lips scumbag hag, with nowhere to go Immortal lies weaken by love Revealing nothing more than her true self A wraith with no heart, no goal Sister, I wore your skin last night Repeating, bleeding, nail biting Greasy and powerful, needy and greedy Aching and whining for not placing Her head lower than shame holding a high Sister I wore and swore to never put on your skin again The nasty feeling, of pretending loyalty, is passion To hate all those who don't fit your skin A vulture preying sending encrypted messages
