Decorated (Mature Subject Matter)

Post by audiofool » Thu May 11, 2017 1:35 am

He was a winsome butcher
his was the sharpest blade
he looked like Ashton Kutcher
bullet-proof, American made

he honed his tactics
urban guerrilla-style
mental prophylactics
never cracked a smile

as the world outside
collapsed of its own weight
feelings kept deep inside
too cool to capitulate

he cuts to the chase
not one to hem and haw
they try to save face
he's an ace with a chainsaw

his enemies decimated
their arguments bled dry
leaves them lacerated
as he slashes their blue sky

it's not a corrective
to the injustices of life
just a lone mental defective
you're going under the knife

as the world outside
curls up into a ball
with no place to hide
gray matter decorates his wall.

I got a very Dexter feel to this... it also reminded me of those sleezy "doctors" you find in some slum area that is willing to do plastic surgery for next to nothing. Quite interesting. :hello:
