Lying is an art. Shades of red lick the walls of the room. It wasn't told how it should go down. It was just told to happen. Happen it did. There are little flecks of bone gritting beneath her shoes, but that's of no concern. Neither is the gray matter splashed on her face or the smell of feces and urine swirling her head, sliding into her nostrils. She enjoys the patterns created by the bright red slung all around.
Eyes are souls. They're staring. These eyes lied. Tangerines try to glow. Orange arranged with fleshy bits of torso like appetizers. Her handywork is to be admired. She wonders if others will feel the same when they see it. It's a little dull in here, lights blown.
Breathe in, look up. Eyes closed, eyes open. Ceiling is yellowed with cigarette tar. The stench of old ashes can't be overridden by death. This is amusing. And sad. She smiles. She tastes the blood of another at the corner of her mouth. Iron doesn't bother her. Salt makes her gag.
Death is an art. The green shag is now geographically browned. Idaho and Italy rise out. It's like cloud watching. Blue skies now green shag. Fluffy clouds are bloody pools. Oh! There's a bunny. It's all smiles. Here.
It's dark in here. Indigo children sing in her head. Sleep will come easy tonight. All the lies are ended. All the lives are ended. The lives that lied. We are not one. We were three. Yes, sleep will come easy tonight.
White clean now. Lavender fills the air as she slides between crisp white sheets. She can breathe now. Better than ever. Better than with him. Darkness overcome. Truth prevails. Darkness is here.

ReplyDeleteO-kaaaayyy... It's not often you find a female sociopath, but, by golly, I think you've found one in this story, Jelly. Excellent gore. I especially like the bunny.

ReplyDeletejeeziz, what is this? very stylistic and waaaay out there. yeah, it's wry and twisted...thumbs up.
ReplyDeleteI can't help it. I have to ask. Have you seen the Dexter Series? For some reason I was reminded of him though he's freakishly clean in a bloody way. He also likes patterns. Dark. This is dark. Dexter is one of my favorite series, though! :)
ReplyDeleteOOOPS. No capital S on series. I am too impatient ALWAYS.
ReplyDeleteI love Dexter. It is a favorite.
ReplyDeleteYuppie, Dexter fans here, I love dexter series too.
ReplyDeleteMesmerizing description of the darker regimes.
Dexter is GREAT. And this piece is FAR OUT. But good.
ReplyDeleteWow at all the Dexter fans stopping by. Strangely, I wasn't even consciously aware of the Dexter influence until it was pointed out. Haven't watched an episode in many, many months (August '10, maybe) since I buy seasons and watch all in one gloriously gory weekend, and I'm waiting on season 5 to come out...
ReplyDeletenice...love all the color through out and the stacatto pace to the lines adds to the craziness...hehe...i like.
