Lucid
leave me to the sharks they will, in turn leave me to sleep with the fishes and i will grow gills and become a siren luring men to their deaths in watery graves and i will sink entire fleets of ships with just my voice and bare hands and carve my name into the side of them
Conquered
big cats pounce at my feet but they obey me queen of the concrete jungle crown made of bees they buzz with insatiable hunger and turn men into honey call me Medusa without the serpentine hair
Worshiped
the point of all this is that i'm not here to satiate you kiss you or kill you tame you or maim you i'm just here to get by with my own little life and it's all just so scary the weight of oceans and cities and mountains and even crowns
but i'm here for a while so get fucking used to it
