Here, before you
1. , I will declare to you:
2. Say anything doubting me
I hate you all,
And also declare–

My demon looks up at yours
And wishes to climb up and
Possess more fruit. And this,
I declare, this desire,
Is not a sin, no, I declare
I will eliminate every desire but to take from
You.
But,
You
Will take my words
And still keep your own reading
As if you isn’t you.
I will eat little, create lots
1. To prove
2. For you, because
My demon is lower. and
I will make a life of suffering,
And I will climb, climb
1. From
2. Like
Hell.
You
Will
See me, grasping my
1. Thread1
2. Words
