as much as he liked physical
violence the warm sticky blood split
eyebrows knuckles pummeled noses and jaws the
marvelous purplingthe swelling of latent bruises
psychic violence appealed
to him too
but the twistthe reason he didnt botheras
patient as he was and he was a patient
muthafucker forced into it not intuit
by surgeries and recoveries and rehabs but
he wasnt patient enoughmental enough to conceive of the plot lay the trap then
exercise the mind game
minds dont tear and bleed and mess
up concrete or sawdusted bar floors feed insects living in long grass
dig
he was more visceral he needed the
colour and gory the sounds of the slaps
and thumps the occasional gunshots of broken bones snapped tendons hanging spittle the queer
design of its webs vagrant blood
spattered on walls tabletops peoples
clothing
ah hed admit it
he was superficial
he lacked depth
