Blindness
"I think we are blind. Blind people who can see, but do not see." José Saramago, Nkbrl prize winning Portuguese author)
okay, but it’s your funeral
you don't know what i have swimming under my skin
the smile plastered on is what you see, but you can't see my intentions
you see my nails with black nail polish but fail to see the blood underneath
i wonder if you're really this stupid
or maybe you don't want to see the chuck of flesh in my teeth
you must be blind to not see the red flag flown across the dead lawn
you want to get close because you don't see the venom in my bite
you want to grab my hand because you don't see the lives it's taken
you want to grasp my lips because you don't see the fangs behind them
you must be blind, so it's all your choice
