Me Yeah

 

by Kris Marvell

I am one.

One of the dead
One of the roaming robot herd
Dark and just holding on
Easily led…
Yeah,
Robbed of my smile
Just me on my mind
Alone in this mirror
One of a kind
Yeah,
Alone in my head
Snarling
Yeah,
Existing vicariously
Bitching
Through mirrored eyes
Numb and thirsty
Craving and dumb
Precariously wise
Yeah,
Easily led…
Laughing hysterically
I am that one
Yeah,
That shadows pathetic disguise
Void and itching
Scratching at scars
Twitching
Yeah,
This metal, hot in my hands
Licking the salt
Sucking the lemon
That liquid sears
Yeah,
The cling film over my eyes
Blasting its fire
Emotions all fed
Yeah,
Transporting me
Away from my fears
Away from the trigger
Yeah,
Alone in my eyes
Away from the ills
Dark and alone again
Yeah,
