Fat *****

Stomach ticking over,

With what was to come,

Churning and turning,

Past, present and future,

All mixed in dreams.

 

Worse than I dared to hope,

Where all dreams are dead,

What a sight beheld my eyes,

The vultures had swooped,

On my being they had feasted.

 

How swiftly the shark swims,

How rapid it swallows its prey,

Nothing but a heap of memories,

I had been ravaged by it all.

Well the fat ***** stood and watched.

 

Slowly she swelled into the room,

She was shining in the glory of guilt,

I was washed in her apathy,

I looked around for what I had lost,

But was it really ever there?
