You sit at my table And eat of my flesh Do my entrails warm you Of the cold outside? Viscera visions of death Erodes my mind While you lay bare my bones Does it amuse you To watch me suffer so? For even a buzzard Shows pity My heart pumps no more From whence blood once flowed A river As dry as sand

A Woman Scorned
You sit at my table And eat of my flesh Do my entrails warm you Of the cold outside? Viscera visions of death Erodes my mind While you lay bare my bones Does it amuse you To watch me suffer so? For even a buzzard Shows pity My heart pumps no more From whence blood once flowed A river As dry as sand
written after discussing "The Burning Bed" with a friend. I was left with these thoughts...
