METAL GEAR

digging iron graves with paper teeth a flaccid tongue to Eat with, a flaccid tongue to Eat
(consume? taste.) the forest outside the iron palace erected simultaneously by unknown
goddesses. LOOK AT ME I AM ASHAMED AND UNWORTHY. clenching jaws and scaling silken
walls, iron tears sobbing and lurching (FUCKING) a tangle of hair in my stomach matted.
retreating limp slick with blood iron knees dented from rocky shores crashed on stumbling. not
dead yet im baptized in iron waves. not forgiven yet but close.
GOLGOTHA
Jackal-Headed Man w/ a human hair noose ENVELOPS me & breaks my collarbone with his jaw.
Obey I obey on all threes and through my gape I am disciplined.
Clenched stomach with acid I spit up YOU-ARE-NOT-PONTIUS.
Wet nails under my chin he replies No.
I WORSHIP MY CRISES
Decomposing kidneys and grey water cocktails in a basement bar. Chipped teeth frame scaled
tongues seducing me with Gregorian chants, do you like it. It is my turn and They frown and I
know I am alive. Help me. Choke of blood (my blood) swelled cotton, eyes bulge & steel eyes
vindicate.
Licking my fingers God asks me my name and I stutter.
I cannot be honest because it is not free.
I AM NOT YET AWAKE
what a whore I am. soaking I tie matted hair crisp with snot (my own) in a knot. a woman by any
other name would still be yellow.
I AM ASHAMED OF YOU, FOR YOU
the white lamb in a tomb of men. for every fuck up I make there is a deposit in thy name. a check
to cash on a sinking yacht hallowed. he shits and weeps, sometimes separately. what a cunt, I say.
to blame the blameless for their misgivings/your sins. to feed the dirt under your fingernails to
our starving daughters
