Torture Me

Deprive me of sleep,
Break my very soul,
Turn me into a shell,
Make my life hell,

Someone wants to help?
Destroy all evidence.

The global community frowning?
Withdraw support for human rights.

Is this making sense?
Only if I am an animal.

Are you brave?
You are afraid of a caged animal.

Inanity Vanity Insanity

Slyly she shyly sees
Things that thinking there
Ought naughtily haughtily be
Verily scarily nearly wearily
Eerily enchanting enticingly enthralling
Scaly slithering writhing withering
Fear prejudice fraught malice
Hope sadness broke promises
Love fleeting life leaving
Breath failing beauty wailing
Why cry vie die
