That’s what you are now
Once a part of the whole enticing pie
The dazzling, delectable, untouchable, covetable, alluring…the BEAUTIFUL
Now just crumbs
flakes that have fallen off
on the floor
being swept up
and dumped
In the waste basket
Where you belong
Ooooh the indulgence you took part in
Druggin, Stripin, Grabbin, Parading
Stickin and Pokin,
Forcing
For years
having your way
getting pleasured
using your full and total power and guise
filling your bellies
sufficing your desires
Who’s satiated now?!
You took advantage of me
in the deceitful masquerade.
Using your puissance,
you used me,
abused me
and when you were done
you dusted yourself off
stepped over me
and continued to play your role.
YOU WERE WINNING
Until the loving hand of justice reached down and
sprinkled the powder of dissolution
YOU’RE EXPOSED
A disgust to the human race
Please
Melt away
hopefully into deep, dark nihility.
