Tonight, the dark feeds with splintered teeth, The moon a bloated glutton, spitting light like shards of bone Through corpse-grey, carrion clouds. The night feeds and I shrink. My dreams are dessicated, All desire ****** dry, the marrow of me mourns For the incarnation of before. I was plump, proud, succulent, I lived for the delights of the night, but now the stars themselves spew from the sky Like the ***** of a long neglected, hobo God. Tonight, the dark feeds with splintered teeth, All are devoured, we are an amuse-bouche For who? For what? And why?

Night Repast
Tonight, the dark feeds with splintered teeth, The moon a bloated glutton, spitting light like shards of bone Through corpse-grey, carrion clouds. The night feeds and I shrink. My dreams are dessicated, All desire ****** dry, the marrow of me mourns For the incarnation of before. I was plump, proud, succulent, I lived for the delights of the night, but now the stars themselves spew from the sky Like the ***** of a long neglected, hobo God. Tonight, the dark feeds with splintered teeth, All are devoured, we are an amuse-bouche For who? For what? And why?
Thought I'd try something a little macabre!
