do you mind if i just continue?

i know it’s not great

but it could’ve been worse

you see, i need to write to give vent

lest i just burst

and spew your world with swirling

toxic black ink melancholic

that’ll block out your sun and overturn

 your fragile world idyllic       

or erupt into a morbid miasma of ash

that’ll tear apart your world smug and petty

and shake your convictions and beliefs and

leave you floundering for your reality

so for your sake and mine

shall we just call a truce

and, do you mind

if i just continue?
