And it's sad, but true
I enjoy wasting you
Watching you fade with the night
I corrode your soul
Like you tried with my body
As it turns
I'm everything you wanted to be
But Better
I play the game you tried to run
But more clever
It's demure how you demand me
Standing bare in the hallway
"Baby, let loose, just for tonight"
Famous last words
I'll tear you apart
Delicately
Leave you standing
Momentarily
You'll collapse
Like all the girls before me
Too bad you never saw this coming
I'm everything you wanted to be
But Better
I play the game you tried to run
But more clever
You never thought
I'd spin it around
Turn it around
That this would come full circle
I avenge the legions of girls
Too weak to resist
Your "charm"
I'm everything you wanted to be
But Better
I play the game you tried to run
But more clever

Poetry: Full circle
by Carol Gioia
When we were young, in love and poor,
with nothing much to lose,
you went to work and didn't mind
the holes in your old shoes.
"Bleeds Dreams"
The hazards of swallowing a double-edged sword
Make our paths to the morgue all the more absurd
An arrow shot
by Tracy Foote
Alone in the darkness
waiting,sil ent, motionless.
A blanket of cold covers
the womb like an icy shroud.
Water rushing,
the shroud
The finest thing you do for me
Of so many
Is make me think another way
When I get tangled up in private worlds of words.
Why
by Moeze Lalji
Have you
Understood life
Yet
It always travels
Back to the origin
The body was raised
From earth
So all Adams and Eves
Return back
