death scene another dream

he says i never tried

but the angels know that i tried

because i asked them to escort me

through the reptilian forest

that he hides in his basement


the moon knows i tried

because i had to use her as a flashlight

he blocked the sun out

with his head — dirty head


he always tries to bite me

always tries to use my bones

to floss his mustard ivories

and he liked to pretend that

my blood is a glass of red wine

and my cerebra is crude steak


he's still filled with dense acid

because he never got to kill me

he never got to swallow my last breath

and he'll never be able to hear me scream

he'll never get to watch my body shake

again and again until i become paralyzed

he never got to command me to die

(die die die!) (die die die!)


anytime he got close to killing me,

i just pushed aside my gravestone

and walked on water like jesus did

until he held up his science book

and told me that i am fiction

then he would go home and die

once he died nine times

he lost all of his lives


he can play all the roles

and he has this idea

that he's the forgotten dicaprio

although, he can only be a wolf —

not a sheep thrown into a well in the ocean


i will not bow down to a man

who cannot even wipe the milk

that he spilled on the marble kitchen counter

i will not bow down to a wolf

that serves his wife poison ivy for dinner

and when she falls, he says he thought it was mint


i cannot wipe away his tears with my lungs

drown my own lungs in mountain water

just so he can siphon out the flood

when he gets thirsty in pre calc


i will not let him record a demon's tale

especially when he tries to tell the world

that he bought me a galaxy a tulip a constellation
