Terrible Tenants

My demons have been living in my mind
rent free, for years now...
I'm too scared to evict them
so I just pretend like they're not there.
Even when they're stomping the floor
to heavy metal music
having orgies with angels
who contract burns from their flames,
through all of it I just sit here
with a cup of coffee and a book
while they shake the plaster ceiling
of my sanity.
I haven't slept in days
I'm angry, guilty, drunk, and tired
and they're up laughing
about all the things they're getting away with.
