Apologies To The Innocent Hereby Tarnished (Unfinished & Published)

Late in the night the ghosts come out.
They dance, they sing
They scream, they shout.

Taunting me is the man I wasn't
In front of me is the man I am
I don't know which is scarier

\

"I'm a lot like you
So please
Hello
I'm here
I'm waiting"

The present speaks for the past.

\

Can't get pink
Go to Pink
Satisfied with a laser beam
Not me.

Something something something
something some thing
something ________

PART V. SCHOOL OF THE MELANCHOLY

More or less, they said,
Than what meets the eye?
Yes was the correct answer.

Are you okay, they asked
Yes was the correct answer
Yes is usually the correct answer
Even if it's a lie

What's the reason?
Sillier questions
Sillier answers
Yes, it is.


Go to class your friends hate you
Or rather, my friends do.
They hate every woman.

\

I was never blessed with the power of
Foresight - I was not cursed with it either.
And so, when I came upon this thing, it
Seemed like it would be a good idea
