I drift 
Like hypnotic vapors
Scattering delusion
Through gushing streams
Of crimson

Off guard
Once stout-hearted masses
Falter, never knowing
The true extent
Of my crimes

All nerves
Fall dull
Silented 
By the malice I exude

Their nerves are mine
Forevermore
A merciful conquest
To relieve me of inner distress

And I’ll drift
Loyal to silence
As I permeate and prowl
For voices to render the same
