I wish

I can have you here

Alone

In my clutches

To remove the excuses from your mind

To part that haze

And slice your soul in pieces

To sing

You a lullaby

As I tie you to the slab

To shave your head with a dulling razor

As you watch

The splattered mirror

Above you

To break your ribs

Individually

With a rock hammer

To shatter your shin bones

With a shovel

To burn

Your fingers and toes

To a necrotic black

Flickering nitrogen

To crack your teeth

With a splintered club

To pierce with your limbs

With a nail gun

To silence your cry

To let them in your eyes

To sharpen my favorite slicing device

And take your arms at the elbow

To keep you alive

For a few moments longer

To smell your fear

To cover your body

With kisses and kerosene

To watch you burn

As my

Human sacrifice

To hear you scream in agony

The popping of your flesh

Cracking as it cooks

To feel your child smile

The one you betrayed

The one you took

For nothing

For selfishness

In a perfect world

I would get

My wish
