Pill

Vacant eyes
Meet vacant eyes
Meet vacant eyes
Meet vacant eyes.
Can there be more?
There must be more.
Reach inside.
Deep inside.
Fingers run over the lying tongue,
Down the throat,
Probing deeper
And deeper
And deeper.
Grasp the writhing truth.
Purged.
Insubstantial blame.
Purged.
Inconsequential anger.
Purposeless discourse.
And now a promise of benevolent malice. A promise of impending violence
To you, my friend.
This is a promise to you,
My friend.
