It is a purple haze
that licks at the clenched muscles in her
jaw.
Biting,
sipping,
caressing her chewed finger tips
(he slit the flesh so that you could
see the red,
red fire, smouldering flesh)
Until you could feel the rancid smell of roasting meat.
He played the drums quite well,
with large metal spikes he played,
the eardrums,
tearing the skin so slowly,
“oh, so slowly!”
Locked in a room he
danced with the key,
an orange hot red rod,
and it swayed
back and forth
and back and
forth a little more.
So it was running together, oozing together,
from his pores.
And his pupils – gnawing at her toes so long,
“oh, so long!”
so fucking spiders crawled out of them and
spun a web.
and white webs
around her.
Until his retina wouldn’t give and he
bled out of his eyes.
As a corpse she lay there now
and lied back then.
So when her words rang true,
the bells inside would ring some louder,
sing inside,
so her bones would shatter and crumble and fall
to ashes in a staggering pain so that she knew,
“she got her blue eyes from her dad”.

some things are far too good to go away~~
i think you forgot to take your medicine
haha im kidding...
baby, i love you, but this is so weird....good! but weird...
where did it come from?
haha i really like it even tho i have no idea what its about
ok.. so... the purple haze is supposed to represent her father being high, and that she can't escape from him cuz it licks and bites and etc... "chewed fingertips" - she chews her fingernails cuz shes nervous all the time and she chews them bcuz of HIM so HE slit the flesh when she chews on them so long that she begins to bleed... so when it goes "red, red fire, smouldering flesh", it's a little play with the punctutaion cuz it could be
"red, red fire, smouldering (the) flesh"
"red, red fire smouldering flesh"
red, red fire, smouldering flesh" where they are all sepperate listings. the whole fire thing cuz he burn her i.e. hurts her and scars her that way... and that goes onm for so long that u can even FEEL the smell... u know?
TADA i hope it makes a bit more sense... its ALLLLLLLLL over the place but eeeeh
