We Could

Just in Time for Halloween (Part of "The Dark Inside Us")

And so we message back and forth

A curious banter

Of weird questions and unusual quirks

What's your favorite color?

Who's your favorite actor?

And

Yet

We could talk about deeper things.

The things lurking beneath even the darkest parts of you.

Your past, present, future

How cruel the world is

What's your favorite serial killer?

The deeper we go, the worse it gets

And the more I start to sound cruel

I'm almost to the point where I'm scary

No longer cool

"Want to come over? Time to play 😋"

On a pig farm far far away

You agree,

And I proceed

To lay all the tarps and gear up in plastic

Have my freezer prepped

Come on in, grab seat

Let's play meet and greet

Hello I'm Psycho,

And what is yours?

You stutter out a name I can't repeat

Which is sad, this was super neat

I lick my knife clean

And remove the rest of your body from your seat

Time to prep and freeze.

Then off to the pigs with the rest

Except of course, teeth.
