    Your Beast of Burden

    Please, do it,
    I long for your lead fist
    Of anger to rain down on me;
    Rip me in two and re-assemble me
    With your cheap scotch tape.
    I am your papier-mâchéd fool.

    Blame it on me,
    Tell me I did it all,
    I tore my own head off and
    Served it to you on a gold inlaid platter.
    You took it with your savage,
    Unmannered hands and bit down
    Tearing at the flesh only to
    Spit it out and say
    It tastes bad.
