Hollow Metal
Metal line cheek bones,
rust was red lipstick.
Each step created sparks.
Now humans are afraid
to walk beside me.
Apparently sparks cause fire
and fire kills.
Humans are afraid of death.
If only my own
clockworks could speak,
I wouldn't be so alone.
The fire from the sparks
was used to burn
every magnet and
spring hidden inside.
Now, I've spiraled
into the unknown trying
to dull every spark, so human's
wouldn't be afraid to walk beside me.
