Murder on my mind...

Woke up this morning
Murder on my mind

Everything seemed to be
Smeary
Hazy
Gritty

All shades of a deep rosy red-
Filtered gray

I went walking
and the streets were busy
loud compact cars
with protesting mufflers
that sounded like the kind of woman
who is always asking for money

I walk fast
I walk stiff
The noise of these Doritio bag and used condom strewn
streets has always given me a throbbing
right on the temples

I am a robot now

I ignore the man in the big rig
who has tits bigger than mine
but somehow feels the need to comment anyway

I am a robot
stepping with the rhythm
I have just now found

Matching that crimson ache in my head
Pulsating
My legs are switchblades

I am a terminator
made to kill
walking as if I have a deadline
some place to be

Seeing red
Blurry edges

I awoke today- Murder on my mind.
