T is for Trial

"Become the beast child, and you'll see... why the lion eats the lamb."

You can be limitless,
we won't have to hide,
won't be so primitive,
we will never die.

This promise of grand illusion,
a gift to you,
so allow my intrusion.

What is the matter?
You do not feel real?
Let it shatter.
Accept my deal.

T is for Temper,
I let it control me,
put my brain in a blender,
with every shot of whiskey.

T is for Torture,
wanted the others to suffer,
drank more to conjure,
made the cycle uncover.

T is for Terrible,
the cycle started,
each brother drinking the chemical,
pain disregarded.

T is for Toxic,
I ruined their fun,
emotions dripped from our faucet,
as the cycle spun.

T is for Torque,
as we kept drinking,
we were swallowed by dark,
we were no longer thinking.

T is for Trap,
I sabotaged their party
I broke their heart,
I am so sorry.

T is for Twitch,
I didn't warn them,
I was a sonofabitch,
and grabbed the rum.

T is for Thought,
punishment to all,
is what I brought.

T is for Temperature,
my time came to burn,
punishment by the Editor,
a lesson to learn.

T is for Touch,
my brother Rojo in charge,
a long buried grudge,
an eternal burning torch.

T is for Twigs,
wooden knives with poison,
breaking my ribs,
punishment for treason.

T is for Time,
lost track of it all,
torture for crime,
beaten, bloodied, but never to fall.

T is for Through,
each tear and cut,
every piece of skin he chewed,
as he took a blade to my gut.

T is for Thigh,
ripped apart as he laughed,
what a reddish shine in his eye,
as he slashed.

T is for Throne,
which became my electric chair,
skin peeled to the bone,
nothing I could not bear.

T is for Total,
as the False King burned,
was given a proposal,
to follow the rules or go in the hole.

---

T is for Tortured Soul,
I enjoyed every bit,
because the Queen makes me whole,
and for her, I'll never quit.

T is for Truth,
this poem ends now...

​...see you soon.
