The Dead Speak



I go by the corridors
Of the dead.
Bones, broken parts are all that's left
Of them.

They speak, those parts
In a way no one can
They know my secret
Nowhere to run.

This is the real me
These bones know
The living beings around
Just see me flow
With the tide.

They think I'm one of them
But the bones know the truth
The real Dexter
Society cannot tame.

Will they hate me, the humans?
When they see me killing?
But ain't I cleaning the trash?
A service for the community?

But I don't kill to protect.
I am no hero
Blood thrills me
I kill to live

The dead bones, the body parts look at me
I know what they say
'We know your secret'
I say, 'Shhh'...

But they might love me, those humans
When they see I kill only bad guys
I might be able to walk in sunlight
And be cheered upon by them...

I see a vision
Where there is light, no more darkness
People complimenting me
For killing those "bastards"

And I think: "This is what it must feel like to walk in full sunlight, my darkness revealed, my shadow self embraced. Yeah, they see me. I'm one of them In their darkest dreams."

P.S: My second tribute to Dexter.

I Kill



Blood - the smell
Blood - the color
Blood - the feel
Have you ever tasted blood?

The cries of the victims
As they shout for forgiveness
The thrill, the enchantment
As I hold my knife
Down their bodies.

Strapped to the table
Each subject, an experiment
My little knife pierces them
Part by part.

They shriek, their eyes bleed
Of water.
They think I'm a monster
But don't they see what I see, 
The madness, the intoxication
The terrible fascination?

Food, sleep, shelter
Are what a man needs
I but need
Blood of others, to live.

Warm oozing spirited
The blood drips off
I stare at it with dreamy eyes
And my heart beats
With a  spark.

I am very clean
Allergic to dirt
My temple- a sanctum
Dust spoils the thickness of blood.

People live to eat
I live to kill
We are all but hungry
What's the big deal?

Blood beckons me
Charms me with its zeal
I like my meat alive
A piece of strapped veal.

They cry and cry
Pray for one last chance
But my hands are tied
I am helpless at their glance.

I can only have my fill
When cutting them slowly, part by part
I kill.


P.S: My tribute to Dexter.
