Yes, this fifth Koi traumatized all.
A painful demon inflicted “Its” bites
Showing us why religion and family equaled pain.
The Piranha separated the Large Gold Koi from the family
Only wanted the Koi to be a maidservant,
Only wanted Its religious interpretation to be shared.
This demon bit and scolded us all
I, the Black Koi became too aware of it all,
The Innocent White Koi got bites too,
And the poorly misguided Small Gold Koi
Was taught not to see it at all,
A grievous error by the Large Gold Koi.
(As the blame for the pain
became wrongly pointed to the Koi and not “It.”)
Smooth with words
Respected by the foolish religious community
Except a few, agreed with this Demon “It.”
The truth was with the Large Gold Koi
Isolated and never fully supported,
We’ve been stuck with this “It.”
The time comes where this Piranha’s bites
Are now shown,
And the scars, borne.
Sometimes, I feel the pain continue,
As I’m still chained by three.
Living with the Large Gold Koi
And the Innocent White Koi
But the Piranha Koi still comes around,
A torturous reminder that I’m still unfree.
The Small Gold Koi took a reef cove
The Large Gold Koi owns as their own
But does not fully see the toxicity
The Demon “It’s” personality
Has been affecting thee.
Even comfortable with those
That share the Piranha’s personality.
This is the dark story
That started it all.
At times I wish
I was born somewhere else
By someone else
Or born naturally, another gender
Or never at all
As I still feel
Trapped in this family’s shadow.
