Dedicated Monster

Pick yourself up off the floor and

Let's watch a movie.

People can be such monsters.

The world could at least provide

the snacks

but nothing is sacred anymore.

Days melt together.

Fuse like jello in a mold.

Hurt me like you mean it

and I will take it gently.

I will wade into your depths

with grace.

I will eat your popcorn,

and I will be your film.

A dedicated monster

in a dark, electric storm.
