Maggot
Jelani Holloway Oct 2018
I've been cruising
Bouncing from home to home
Searching for satisfaction

I'm a maggot
******* sweet sustenance
I'm a maggot
Absorbing essence

I thought I could force affection
How Piscean of me
Nothing's ever set in stone

I'm a maggot
Tasting tangy toxins
I'm a maggot
Licking rotten flesh

To evolve is convenience
Because travel would be easier
Maybe then satisfaction can be found

I'm a maggot
Plunging into the darkest oceans
I'm a maggot
Sliding down the most jagged of poles

— The End —
