manic pixie dream girl

[poem // escapril day eight]

manic pixie dream girl

gives sad boi list of reasons for

living then excavates still beating

heart on silver platter

for him. utensils too

like poet like muse, oh sad boi

oh god’s weakest soldier

and manic pixie sweet

cursed girl with hero

complex. he the insatiable trickster

all teeth and bruises, he is lethal

injection he is always lying

lips a honeydrenched

purgatory, sadboi swallowed

her and found another

manic pixie martyr

girl to fill his void

girl to keep him living
