Mad confession

Sitting tranquil beneath a pile of leaves

A pound and a half of tree trophies

Treasures to the birds and larva among them 

Laying quietly in wait

As I crawled up from the trophies

As I snuck beneath the vines and veins of the trees

I crept across a saddened sight

A cold humanizing laugh cackling past my ear

My left ear

Then snuck into my brain and down my spine settled

Nestled..in my eyes

"Are you a friend? Are you a fellow wondering wanderer?"

It called back with malice and spiteful trickery 

"Are you an enemy or are you a cruel friend?" 

It stayed silent with an invisible smile

Cold breath, friendless breath

I found that this intrusive visitor was nothing at all

I could see that it could be easily ignored

I wonder, I truly wonder

I wonder if it will ever go away

Not that I really care, a kinder evil is used to it

So then it refused to quiet under concious neglect

So then I smled and realized I must be patient

Patient with the unneeded companion

Patient to all those crossing my way

Patient

So, so I can see that I am...what?

Who's there?

Who's there?

Who's there I say!
