Why don't you
Just put me on the shelf for later use
nevermind the expiration date
No one wants to see abandoned jars or refuse
cluttering the sight of such a seemingly perfect kitchen
where you can concoct your own recipes
of what is desirable
and what is pleasing - palatable to the tongue
shove those unecessary ingredients out of sight
until you're ready for your own private dinner party
then she's in the spotlight
welcome to the show of convenience and obligation
a rare and perturbing occasion.

"Frank the Rabbit"
Sometimes I want to pull his little bunny head off his plushy body
and shake out his insides
just to feel the cotton against my fingers
to mash it into the carpet
So I feel the power in my destruction
and how feeble his stiched-on eyes plead forgiveness
---------------------------------------

"Everything I Loathe and Fear"

my heart aches
and I fear this dissatisfaction
that seemingly arrives out of thin air
I want to believe I'm just making things up in my head
but sometimes I'm scared that the bitterness inside me is not dead
there's a rotting core tainted with your blood
and your spite enters my veins
at first I thought I was your prisoner
but then I realized I was only a captive
when I became just like you
--------------------------------------------

Torture me/make me your slave/laugh at me/dance on my grave/This is not the devil's work/when men wicked as yourself/have wrought their own stinking hell/Burn all you desire/But I won't be there to feed your fires.

Butterfly
Make her wing pattern
on the windowpane
causing me pain
because I can't seem to break the glass
and let color in again.
