poem: spider
in the tub i killed a spider.
it reminded me of tyler.
watched it struggle, watched it writhe;
just another sacrifice.
as he weeps about his pain,
he'll keep stabbing til l'm drained;
like a predatory bleeder,
victim camouflages reaper.
poured shampoo, watched it drown,
spider struggled, flush it down;
it's me in my innocence,
trapped in tyler's cold pretense.
to tyler, i'm that spider there;
to spider, i'm its worst nightmare;
i'm a predator yet prey,
shifting roles like night to day.
think of tyler, not the spider,
one so cruel yet i’m no kinder;
drained my heart, he played for free
with my spider misery.
