Challenge
Love is overrated; write something about hate.
Strutting
Strutting whores of hate
strike out at the world
hating themselves for loving you
bubbling mud overflows
and demands to be heard
faltering void beneath feet
hating themselves for wanting you
deceptive creatures
crawling under skin
a loathsome town
of evil guts
hating themselves for hungering for you
bottomless crater
scraped walls and
dangling truth
shudder of acerbic
words not seen
or touched but
existing in
malignant eyes
hating themselves for all you do
nightmares in
beds of hate
flowing blood
down streets
of acrimony
hating themselves for adoring you
buried deeply
in scarlet bulbs
of hatred
bottomless crater
of death looming
larger than pain
hating themselves for touching you.
