Sall B. Mcgill


Listen, I’ll be clear

I don’t like you and I never have

If I had to choose between you and a knife, I would have left with a weapon by now

I would kill you with a single look

I would slap the white or black from your face

If you said something, my hands would already be around your throat

I would take your butt  and throw it off the train, if I wanted to

If you asked me for a favor, I would say “NO” and demand to fight

I would jump off a cliff and eat a bug

I would go swimming and wrestle a shark

I would take your bag, your clothes, your life, your name and spit on it

I would take a knife and cut off a slip of your skin,

Just to watch the blood flow, slowly killing you

I would kidnap you and keep you locked up

I would stab you over and over again, even after death

I would hit you until your neck broke and you couldn’t breathe again

I would thrust your head in the water, take it out, then do it again

Because the other me is not your friend,

She is ruthless, heartless, cold-blooded and wants you dead

She would bring a gun to school and shoot everyone,

Just for the fun of it

She knows the spot on your back that will not only kill you, but

Also break every bone in your body and release all your blood

She would kill your parents and relatives just to see you cry

She would bomb your house

She would trap you, then rip your heart out

Because Sally is insane, dangerous and not afraid to die for her sins.

<p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="font-family: comic sans ms,cursive;">The poem Sally B. Mcgill was inspired by my image of what an alter ego would be. It actually doesn’t relate to me, except I am a little dark, which is evident by the fact that I wrote the poem in the first place. I made Sally the opposite of my personality and she sort of took a form of her own as this mean and sadistic person who will crush anyone in her way</span></span>.</p>
