i dig my claws into your shoulders, staring over you while you go about your day
blood drips methodically from my mouth and eyes, and you mutter incoherently as you try to shake me off
i cling tighter, claws making a clinking sound when they hit your bones
but you dont cry out
you never do
not even as i feel myself contorting, twisting, becoming something even worse
i screech and see blood stream from your ears and you crack and i see it
that shimmer of gold ive been reaching for
i break your shell away and tear into the orb of purity hidden inside, like a special treat just for me
and then, in the blink of one of my many new eyes, it is gone
and im there
all alone
more horrific than ever
and i run away to find someone new
to dig my claws into
to whisper the worst things to
to steal from
