...Tendrils

...You must have this playing as you read to grasp the darkness in motion...



 
Caustic brain function
Interruption of self
Burdens of marionette wires, sliced
My darkness, precise
I burn with the rage of a magnesium scream
Through metal, through your dreams
Nightmare-scape of a person who knows there is no escape
Dread upon the marionette wires dangling above your head
Puppet master no more
Your puppet is out to settle the score
Shimmering blades of cerise
Or something not so nice?
I wrap the wires with dire purpose
So tight they bleed the surface
No attention to be paid
My focus is my rage
Cthulhu has broken free of his cage
My tendrils the marionette wires of your foretold screams
As I suspend you within your darkest extremes
Nightmares would be a dream
Listen as your sanity cracks
My relentless attacks bring you to the apex of your sins
I feel the climax building within
Burdened with the soon to be release
The wires pulling you off your feet
Terror overcomes despair as you take your last breath of air
You beg me to stop as I whisper…I no longer care

    "Nightmares become dreams" and the morbidly mundane screams, for a respite from the rending seams, as I become amorphous. See what you made me do Sol! - cheers! - Dan
