We Want Your Every Purpose

We want your every purpose:

 

we want your youth,

your rosy cheeks.

we want your shining brown skin

and your supple arms

 

we want your thoughts,

your cogs and spinning wheels.

we want your psychosis

 

and if you are drained,

sagging and grey

with only one last rattling breath left -

 

well,

 

we want that too.
