Return to your manhole!

by Vere Mantratriad

when I'm having a
pleasant
un-dream
and you bring me
back to your
attitude
where you
divide my tide
from coming in
I crack
under your pressure
leaving me with
thoughts of
tearing through
your skin
only to find
what's underneath
is bone laced
with sin

Author's Note: For L's raw sewage people. :P

Love, love, love "divide my tide/from coming in" and "is bone laced/with sin" lines. The line breaks help it all to pack a nice punch, too.
