Calli is on a distinguished road
okay, since this thread has died, I thought I'd post one of my poems again. Since I have nothing better to do with my time. Please PM all comments. It's called 'Blue Vein Cheese'.

A knife
falls
on the pale skin
her eyes widen
as the flesh splits open
she whimpers
her lips slowly parting
and she lifts the stained knife
to them.

the veins
are opening
like dead flowers
in a funeral parlour.
they're spilling out
into the flesh
and she giggles.

her mother comes in
and takes one look at her daughter
before sobbing.
she breaks down and cries
like acid rain
burning her soul
the child within
keels over
as the cancer
ravages it's small body
festering sores
appear
on her once
porcelain white
face, lips red
and eyes so blue
like the sky on a summer day
and a deathly whine
falls from her pale lips
stained with lipstick
that looks like
blood

"how could you do this?"
her voice is a hoarse whisper.
the tears burn her skin.

"blue vein cheese"
the girl whispers
digging her fingernails
into it.
"it's my obsession, ma,
I just can't help myself."
