Day Terrors



a breathing pack of lies, 
i've watched them
eat their young
while sleepwalking;
they spit up bones
when they think 
no one is looking
(i'm looking).



a breathing pack of lies,
i've seen them do it;
they go down grinning
and come up again
covered in crimson,
still smiling,
a chemical white half-moon
against a red night sky
(they don't see me).




a breathing pack of lies, 
i watch them 
whether my eyes 
are closed or opened;
and when I hide
under the covers 
they believe
that i want to be found
(i just want to dream).
