a woman scorned

choke,
she says,
on death rot ruin
on the things you gave her
(the things she gives back)
hell hath no fury

the one percent

diamonds for lungs
rubies for a heart
emeralds for eyes
who needs flesh
and blood
and bones
when you have gems?

ichor

can a god bleed?
ask zeus
poseidon
hades
ask them what hurts them
what makes them human
(because what is more human than to bleed?)
can a god bleed? you ask
lightning
tsunamis
avalanches

can you?
