Margaret Alice Second - 'Too Suggestible (Revised)

Time to escape ‘A Thousand Ways to Die’
fast becoming one of those nasty to all
and sundry jerks who died as a result
of their own malicious vindictiveness

Thinking ‘there she goes, law-breaker
posing normality, fraudster underneath,
happy with unethical tricks until she fell,
fracturing her skull into a million pieces’

– and –

‘Here she comes, woman who thought
living in her mind was good enough, just
fooling herself, no life in reality at all’ –
I shudder because of these thoughts

Cannot retrieve my happy inner world;
time to stop watching unloving people
hurting one-another and thus meeting
their doom in such shocking ways

Becoming a character in the show –
so gullible to be sucked in, hating
who I am!
