there is a large red eye
growing out of the side of my left hand
and at present it is staring me down
as if i were going to be it's dinner
when it finishes growing into
whatever troll-like monster it is meant to be
 
i find this a little disheartening
for just yesterday, i discovered
that my family is just pretend,
the stars are just x-mas lights,
and my home is made of glass
 
the eye winks knowingly
 
the right hand begs for vengence,
and very slowly the right creeps
so as not to attract the attention of the left,
the left must be caught off guard...
 
so very, very slowly the right creeps
toward the pocket knife it keeps nearby
for when he rest his fingers upon his weapon
the right will rise up and destroy the evil left
and release the demon within the crimson iris
 
then the plastic army men
that make up my family, will take me
take me into the woods
and sit underneath the x-mas lights
and put the body of my evil left hand
into the fire pit, where, finally at peace,
it will rise up from the flames, and
turn into a bird as it flies up into the heavens
 
dirty bastard.
