Pumpkin Sky

by aj r.

Cut off my scalp
and carve out the guts;
keep the seeds, but
nothing more.
Burn those until they're good
enough for your tastes.
Take your knife as you chew
and spit out the parts
of me you want me to
show.
I can be your best creation
and everyone's nightmare;
I'll be the perfect monster
if you'll be my Frankenstein.
But don't you dare leave.
