Sharpest One In the Drawer

























Sleek and violent.

Deaf and silent

I wait.

Wait on the edge,

as is my life.

Wait on the shelf,

a collector of dust.


Heavy like sin.

Sin in the crevices

dried in.

I bring relief,

Sawing through the flesh of grief.


Blood from the forearm

Is a hand-job.

I’m still a virgin

to death.

Serrated digits clasped in prayer,

waiting for rage without outlet.


Because I mangle

not strangle.

Open

not close.


The adrenalin

I brought you

will dry

those pain soaked eyes.


You’ve turned me on.

Now I’m dripping wet

with rose colored madness.

I live for your blood,

I feed off your sadness.




I need it.

Addicted.

How dare you hold back.

My life is all edge,

rigid and sharp.

While your safe in the light,

I wait for the dark.
