he put a chain around my neck that night like a dog
here's a treat!
the chain tightens my throat
i cant breathe
you're hurting me
he takes me down a path where the scenery was whimsical
bright and crisp
like a dissociative trip
then the path
it gets darker
and darker
it stunk of dread and regret
what an awful stench
i tried to breathe
let me go
let me go
