open up
a little wider
hmm a little more
please
there
— perfect!
now take your
size 9 shoe
shove it so far
inside your mouth
that the big toe
point keeps
on a path
to collide
with one intimate
wrecking
ball
words
without a filter
can destroy
an innocent
unassumed
victim
but what of the one
who stated such phrases
from a point of honesty?
an inner conflict exist
between what is said
and from the place
it came from
no malice
riddled with sorrow
at the pain caused
— forgiveness
from a kind heart
elevates anxious
trepidation
but what of the script
that plays itself
over and over
.i. .n. .s. .i. .d. .e.
the non-predators
ridiculous
brain
stop
rewind
play
stop
rewind
play
stop
fast forward
play
stop
rewind
play
stop
stoP
stOP
sTOP
blood hell
STOP already!!!
an endless loop
of innocent
stupidity
