    can't you just hear me
    crushing fruit for
    the citrus sting
    waiting for you to wipe
    the dirty stains from my
    layered skin

    can't you just hear it
    fall in from above,
    the clatter of nails
    screaming chalk white
    and rubbed
    to upend your scales

    can't you just hear you
    coughing your lies
    to soft celled automatons
    and vicarious thrives
    choking on gasoline
    as you wring them alive
    and wait for the snap
    so calm yet contrived

    can't you just hear this
    rant from the side,
    a deafening rabble
    confused by the desperate
    longing that eats
    and hollows insides
    and saves on sex and solemnly sighs
    content with the you
    i created a long time

    Last two stanzas are strongest, but great overall.
    Love the repetition in the first part of each new line.
    Not sure what it's all referring to but "the you i created a long time ago" bit really struck a chord. Well done.
