Running With Scissors

1

Behind those iron bones
you know you're craving it
Some storytelling ,
But not from the
same old books
No more crap about
Little Red Riding Hood
because our problems
aren't little anymore
Our hood is black
and the wolves are hungrier
for something worth more
than our empty vessels

Don't rest in hibernation
It's a trap for
suicidal contemplation
Grab the scissors
Ignore the shivers

And flee.
