Water on the Brain
by Clara Mae GregoryWhy does an evil, callous demon
possess a deliquescent brain?
GrayMatteredGreenYellowed Stain
that became insane with disdain.
You are The Offal offering them
your victim’s tortured pain.
Sacrificed for your own gain?
I hear her silence screaming
where the darkest secrets reign.
Her truth will exorcise your demon
And expose you to your shame
Or you will share the torment
possessing a deliquescent brain.
