Candy Cane
By FearlessDragon
Glaciers forming deep within
It seems it's time again
Chimes
twinkling in my head
Fading into red....
Blank canvases
I see
Oh! The possibilities
How pretty you would look
Upon a bed of nails
Paper skin so frail
How splendid
you will taste
Ribcage open ... Splayed
Scream my name
You lovely thing
Tell me i'm insane!
Convince me of your
innocence,
While I demonstrate this pestilence
Shackles
strain and clank
Upon your wincing face
Roasting on an open flame
Entranced in zombie gaze
Upon the swirling drain
Teeth
and blood,
Twisting like a candy cane
Corkscrew vasectomy,
Beg for me!
Tell me how it hurts!
Ice pick lobotomy,
Don't dig too deep
You mustn't fall asleep
Don't want
you to miss a beat
I've saved the best for last...
I hollow out your chest
So you may feel MY pain
Past forgotten
though it be,
Bathe me in your suffering...

Very smoothly done, emotions and violence fit together and complimented eachother. The cand cane line was inspired- good work!

Several cuts above the usual fare with some diabolical images at play, but entirely appropriate and fleshed-out. Make mine a standing rib roast, cheers FD!
