Cockroaches

I saw them in the corner
Like brain pieces on the wall,
Climbing to my ceiling,
Loud and stinking with blood.

I can hear them crawling
Inside my moldy walls,
Slow and steady
Like the movement of organs.

Heartbeat Dependency

You imagine them whispering in your ears
Through the screen of your computer
You forced me to listen to your heart
Quick and irregular
I'm afraid to uncover my ears 
To hear the beating of your heart
I hope it never stops
Otherwise mine starts

Nameless Blood

Blood drips on the ground beneath my feet
But not from my eyes you gouged out 
Or from the tongue you cut off 
Nor my eyes you left to listen 
And not my insides where it crawls.

Unkown makes me afraid
More than my blood pooling on the snow
I knew it always bleeds
But I don't know where the scar is

Dream

I saw God in my dream today
In a flood of light, brighter than sunlight.
But when I opened my eyes
It was just the street lamp.

Fumbling Sheep

I'm a really hungry wolf
One that’s never satiated.
Your heart isn't enough
I need your whole arm off

I'm a truly gentle wolf,
Feeding on your bounty.
Maybe flesh is all I need
Not the tears you cry with doubt

What a lucky sheep you are,
Well-fed, with plenty of wool
Yet your eyes are full of fear,
Fumbling blindly in the dark.

"I mean no harm,"
The wolf insists.
He has no claws to wound,
Just teeth sharp enough to cut.

Red Dog

Loyal, docile, obedient dog
Why did you leave me all alone?
Now I'm a sheep with red wool,
And maybe it's your fault.
Fumbling sheep calls your name in the dark,
Not the one beside you.
Only the sheep with red wool
Wants to be there with you.
