Fragments of Etienne

– I’ve never heard you use it that way before.
— Mm.
– ‘Evil’. I liked it.
— Oh?
– It made me…
— Yeah well, I certainly understand that side of it.
Blink
I let her stare
– Let me?
— A figure of speech.
– You want me to stare at you.
— Yes.
And I revive it
Set it alight
Let it burn and burn and burn with endless fuel
– I never realised how erotic it was.
— Is.
– Is.
This evil
And life is convenient for sectioning me from it
Or from what it wants to consume
To destroy
With greed
A love so wild it’s almost hate
– In some ways it is hate.
— Hm.
So I do it for her
Let her taste it
She stills her eyes and stares
– I want to keep you all to myself.
I have no problem with that
No problem at all
