Let me tell you the story of the things that I did<\/p>\n
To silence one of the dual voices in my head<\/p>\n
Let me confess to you the sins which I so lately hid<\/p>\n
Unearth my past mistakes and return them from the dead<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Once I was haunted, ever hunted by my darkest side<\/p>\n
My mathematics grew erratic, my sciences fell mad<\/p>\n
Broken, I was taken and found release within my Hyde<\/p>\n
We began work on an abomination, a new vessel for our dyad<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Parts and pieces, bits and bones, a heart torn from its cage<\/p>\n
We pillaged and we plundered all, foul deeds and filthy means<\/p>\n
A golem of our base desires, born bleeding from our rage<\/p>\n
Inherited of our insidious genes, gestated in our infernal machines<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We worked with fevered frenzy moulding ichors, adipose, guck<\/p>\n
Daydream sewn to nightmare sewn to fantasy<\/p>\n
Boredom sewn to suffering sewn to ecstasy<\/p>\n
Everything we had we spent by the time the lightning struck<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The last patchwork piece affixed in its place<\/p>\n
The flesh for its features cut from my own face<\/p>\n
My secret sickness now made manifest for all the world to see<\/p>\n
I created a monster, and the monster is me<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
