Insufferable I am The passion of desire Denatures all of my bones And sets my lungs afire Ablaze and plainly brazen I rocket through my veins A welling and a tingle The mingling of my pains Entitled to an answer Entitled as “my own” My own is to forsake me Forsaken is my home My mystery is the craving Not the other way around I hunt to smell it breathing Others forage pieces— —left on the ground More is all that feeds me Blood keeps me alive I eat to feed the others My subjects and my pride Everything looks at my sweat Threat in droplets, all in stride Working for the night’s regret I never run or tire or hide I keep it in and just at bay It is a solemn price to pay To know the dark can be undone And be the thing that must be done The rapture of the weight it brings The capture of the finer things They whisper in my eager fears And I’m the only one who hears

It all must fall
Insufferable I am The passion of desire Denatures all of my bones And sets my lungs afire Ablaze and plainly brazen I rocket through my veins A welling and a tingle The mingling of my pains Entitled to an answer Entitled as “my own” My own is to forsake me Forsaken is my home My mystery is the craving Not the other way around I hunt to smell it breathing Others forage pieces— —left on the ground More is all that feeds me Blood keeps me alive I eat to feed the others My subjects and my pride Everything looks at my sweat Threat in droplets, all in stride Working for the night’s regret I never run or tire or hide I keep it in and just at bay It is a solemn price to pay To know the dark can be undone And be the thing that must be done The rapture of the weight it brings The capture of the finer things They whisper in my eager fears And I’m the only one who hears
