gagging on the prongs
lizards
lined up on your road
each critter has a gun loaded up
many  bullets run around, to make chests
show tongue and teeth
who knew
you put a dumb  thumb
in your mouth, as an experiment
just for you and the world you will inhabit
and you take a victory lap
i am so surprised by this
cowards belittle you
gagging on the big prongs
of your huge, glittering crown
hey, you are cutting up dusty guts, princess
rip timbers
set them afire
jut, thrust, jab and stab
let blood flow down your legs
did is say this, yet?
princess
princess
princess
