threat




lost my tongue; caught my speech
mommy i'm scared of what i'll release
hold me tight; stabbed in the back
had to stop me; couldn't control myself
destroy the threat that is me
keep me, the disease from spreading
losing every thing even the essence of time
spinning like gaudy tops, round an' round
sallow face, pale and taught
i scare you don't i?
especially when lips pull back from teeth
and a sound comes out like a laugh
at all your painful movements of your mouth
