i got what i wanted
now i wish i didn’t have it
raised to be rotten
risqué mister maverick
opaque sadist
samey when sedated
taken with the lumps
inside of gilded cages
quick and painless
prairie dog princess
aegis was a fake
so all your bark is forfeit
torque spit
cork it
make a body worthless
fork it over
so i can snap its halo
lay low
ankle biters stick to pay-phones
stake more
hate me
i’ll blow up if you say so
