It’s best to be direct,
though it can be painful
while, say,
pretending to converse
with someone uncannily channeling
a beaming Christian Bale as American Psycho.
It’s easier to watch a horror movie
than to find yourself inside one
trying to remain sincere
while looking into a funhouse mirror,
fun hogtied and bleeding,
gasping for breath.
It’s fun until somebody loses an eye.
