monster

if I put my mouth this close to yours
and screamed
would you still doubt my existence
if I stood next to you
and started tearing at my veins
would you notice
and still not
care
if I ran through your house and knocked
everything off of the walls
those pictures, so carefully framed
would you continue to stare at the clock
and wait for me to finish
and wait
for me to disappear.
