Kisses & Kerosene

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
With liquid nitrogen
To crack your teeth
With a splintered club
To pierce with your limbs
With a nail gun
To silence your cries
To laugh 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
