VICTIM (A POEM)

DUPING SOMEONE INTO MAKING THEM FEEL GUILTY I ONLY HAVE TO PLAY THE WOUNDED
RAISING MY EMOTIONS TO ATTRACT PITY THEN TURNING IT AROUND AS IF I’M OFFENDED
UPSETTING OTHERS TO FEEL SYMPATHY FOR ME, EMPOWERS MY SWEET INSANITY OF MY OWN CREATED FATALITY
UNKNOWING TARGET WHO HAPPENS TO BE IN MY VICINITY
BECOMES MY VICTORIOUS CASUALTY OF HIS OWN STUPIDITY
CAN’T HELP MYSELF ENJOYING PLAYING THE MARTYR
SO AS TO CAUSE A SYMPATHETIC REACTION TO BARTER
THE OBJECT OF THIS GAME IS OF COURSE GET OTHERS TO FEEL MY PAIN
IF THEY ALL SUFFERED WITH ME THEN I WOULD HAVE PLENTY TO GAIN
FALSE IDEA OF A SUFFERER APPREHENDED
FOR A CAUSE WITH NO RECOGNITION OF WHAT ONE SUCCUMBS TO EVEN TO JUST THINK AND PAUSE
REACHING OUT TO OTHERS AND PREYING ON THEIR OWN IDIOCY KNOWING FULL WELL THAT THEY ARE WILLING VICTIMS WITH NO SENSE OF SCRUTINY
SACRIFICING SO MUCH OR SO IS PERCEIVED
AND ALL THAT IS ENDED UP WITH IS EMOTIONAL GARBAGE RECEIVED!
FORFETING OTHERS RIGHTS TO THEIR OWN FEELINGS
I JUST LET OUT AN AGONIZING SCREAM LIKE I’M BLEEDING
THEN THEY SURRENDER TO MY VICTIM LIKE DEMISE
AND THIS FILLS TEMPORARILY, A SENSE OF SECURITY THAT FOR NOW SHALL SUFFICE
RUINING MYSELF AND OTHERS THAT ARE FOOLISHLY COMPASSIONATE
TO A LESS OPULENT FEELING OF A VICTIM THAT’S AN IMMORAL DEGENERATE!
