This is probably the best I have read from you so far Christopher, i like it quite a bit.

Whether animal pelts and bats
or genital sacks and flaps,
they’re somewhat disturbing
in those reds and blacks.
Right now doctor,
don’t you see
your Venetian blind?
How it sections your office
into black and white spines,
[/quote] I am not sure but I think blind needs to be plural. Also, you are using so much concrete imagery that "indifference" feels weak.
Overall, I like it quite a bit. It is both creepy and condescending. Appropriate serial killer material.

spattered the blood
or folded those cards,
were they experts or a child?
Quote:Big deal,Todd was right about the break on "to". As for the rhyme? i have to wonder if it is strengthening or weakening. Consider just cutting at "consensus"
confusing vague butterflies
for vaginal spotting or porno cream-pie.
It’s a poorly-designed cryptic
game that could never surmise
"surmise" feels wrong. Also, do you need "pie"?
my state of mind.
Since I see bizarre patterns
in nearly everything,
why must I conform to
your consensus of the norm?

Quote:each sodden with the bloodthese 2 stanzas are the best. The imagery is appropriate, concrete, relevant and draws the metaphor nicely
of graded indifference?
When it comes to your hide,
it’s so clear in my mind,
like excised zebra stripes
in De Stijl promenade.
Why you’re even bar-coded,
encrypting bad Muzak
and I hear you being played
black on white
like piano keys,
as I sing this song for you
and me
Quote:about your dissected organs
blotted upon cards.
