gloria crux!
   gloria anorexia crux!
                        for st. andrew
was thinner than the cross,
for the catwalk models
    ate more than the disciples
at the last supper or more
than the 5000 fed with two fish;
speak latin boy! no one
will relieve you of being absolved -
unless testimony of
     the last rites via the dog collar.
      thus spoken: regno crux
est utero anorexia (
     the reign of the cross is
         anorexia giving birth
  to man with an a priori
                     birth certificate
   of demise - demised further
by a daughter aspiring to invoke
an exchange of shadow with body).
