Am I human? Alive or just a speckle in an eternal sky a mere note floating in a bottle on endless ocean, vast crashing waves, casting shadows of an alien future thriving for eyes of reciting words spoken upon amputated ears just another child of death, swept under the floor, feed for worms, and bloodstained soil sound drained and empty, can you hear the sound of previous skin? shouting and calling like the hungry serpent who's eyes dilate with its stomach, as it sheds its skin and stands to compfort the clouds will you love me? willing as death, not taking! but giving as birth!! touch me my senses quiver with your fingers love leaves my lips as they grasp yours as the talons of the hunting hawk who's thirst for life is forever
