My half sister is Panic.
A manic meteorite in cahoots with the conspiracists
A charismatic child with no sense
Utterly stupid and prone to tantrums
A sobering taunt that brings you out of your world
Pulling you into hers to suffocate you with her foolishness
So that it becomes all you think about
-
How dense she is!
Telling stories about things she’s only ever seen
On TV because she doesn’t read books
Sucking the composure out of you like a Marlboro
Telling lies about a new job or a lost friend
New illness or an old flame come back to haunt
But she is the ghost girl!
-
Wandering thresholds with her hair in plaits
An imposter, all tapioca white
Whistling for attention and flickering the lights
Needy and sorrowful, always moaning
She’ll say look at the moon tonight!
It looks like a cancerous lymph node
And you’ll look
