Cycle

by Straight Panic

1.
Look at you 14, 15, 16 already wiped clean a steady diet of peer review and community use Teenage apathy and existential waste wrapped with a pretty bow of suburban infamy and locker-room fame All the boys want to be you all the girls want you all the girls want to be you all the boys want you Your skin is clean like Roman marble your features soft as Persian silks your personality as blank as unused canvas your brain barren as a landfill All the boys have already had you the girls will never notice you all the girls will never have you all the boys have started ignoring you Here I will write my manifest of all I can make of you of all I can fucking do to you Here I will carve my La Pieta of all I can think of doing to you of fucking up all of you Here i will burn my effigy of every different use of you every single way of destroying you To you hole I'll do what I want I'll do what I need to claim that ideal To lay claim to you I'll do what I have to I'll do whatever it takes to lay waste to you Let me save you Before you turn out like me Let me spare you before you turn into me It's too late for me and it's far too late for you

A sudden shade of grey prone to bruises blue moons red horseshoes custodial guardianship investigated Pale little brother indifference as abuse space in-between idolatry/masochism top and bottom bunk Broken window stained mattress the corpse of longing the spectre of youth a voice as rustling leaves Slender limbs pinned brief hint of blood in moonlight For the purity of the bloodline this stays amongst family
