EXSANGUINATE
Well Hell, I didn't even know
that sacrifice was expected
until my sacrifice was made
when it sprang monstrous
and bikini clad from my giant
rebirthday cake with a bunch
of dark barbed wire balloons
and shouted, 'SURPRISE!'
that made something sharp
and immediate grow pointed
inside me like a new tooth
in the mouth of a shark
all ready to roll for the
next splash in the water
like you know…
that cute heart,
the little red one,
with the arrow through it?
So sweet,
but really you know…
there’s gonna be blood.
ZODIACAL
I'm gonna
go with the
forecast for Leo
because it rings truer
to me than the fish
something about
a long tall journey
and a dark handsome
death which sounds
‘round about right
for a Monday.
WHODUNNIT
A love affair is like a chicken.
Neither die from natural causes.
And this time it wasn't
the butler. Oh no, this time
this time it was you.
