Let Me Be The One

Let Me Be The One

Let me be the one
who always lied to you
because that is what
you wanted to hear

Let me be the one
who always lied to you
so you would love me

Let me be the one
who always lied to you
be the last to escape
from the web

Haunted

Muddy drooping staircase
purple gourd hangs from
a hook in its bitter mouth
sounds extract a chill
doll children all frightened
they'd only come to pluck treats
their eyes glossy round
terror on their kissed faces
inside the gourd he works
a microphone
