blogging for a flogging
light my hair with
thunderbolts and set my tongue
afire
whip me into submission
bend me to your rules and lies,
make me into a blow-up doll
that just might
contain the foul stale air
of your unsavory scent trail,
knock me out with your idea
of a perfect human being but remember if you
steal away the bride of Frankenstein
and let the townspeople run amuck, stark
raving mad, you'll be the one hugging
yourself in your very own straight jacket
when the asylum doors open
you'll never
shape me into the perfect
image of you
all you'll ever have is a little dog
nipping at your heels
and pissing on all your favourite
things
just so you know:
the real me will still say
fuck you
and your little dog too...
