Eyes Made Of Pillows – Unhinged Poem 2020TOO

say you want it even as the sun goes down,

the little people hate it even when the sun goes down,

long lost brothers meeting for the first time,

shaking hands with the devil,

playing like it meant less,

poster boy for the apocalypse,

eyes as sharp as its tongue,

lies spilling out like a flood,

say you want it even as the sun goes down,

the little people hate it even when the sun goes down,

daddy said it wasn’t his fault,

he didn’t know where his seed laid,

devils in the details,

lies in the sandpit,

games not worth the prizes,

as the other kids slept,

say you want it even as the sun goes down,

the little people hate it even when the sun goes down,

pages of a book I wrote,

lies of things I said,

you kept calling my name,

even after I left,

strange days are coming,

that’s what they all said,

say you want it even as the sun goes down,

the little people hate it even when the sun goes down,

say you want it even when your dead!
