• Chitter Chatter, Bugs
    By: Kit Katy

    They chitter and chatter beneath my carpet,
    They strike me down with each blow of malice,
    My cries are in vain until I rage a deep scarlet,

    Each one has disrespect
    However, the ruler doesn't appear to give a care

    The ruler charges his lonely root
    I'm enclosed on the roof

    They still chitter and chatter,
    They swarm and swing objects at one another,
    They mock me and shun my desire,

    As we near the end, the ruler asks me a simple question.
    That question lingered as I used the toxins.
    My hands stained with itching substance
    It was a fatal mistake for the ruler and fatal to my health

    A day passes, my breath decreases
    Such vile illness, I didn't wish for any diseases
    A voice tells me of a life line, but it's not decent

    A jab here, and my life becomes renewed
    However, those emotions gnaw inside me like food
