Rumours fly like dead carcasses,
             infecting those who they land upon.

But no one realizes that they were bitten, corrupted
             burrowing beneath conscious thought.

Seeding the larvae of what would seed within
            the canals of corrupted reflections.

Never realising that every thought was laid
            well before they knew and hatched diseased.

she picked me
off
of
her lining
patches


she let me squeeze
her strawberry


here

now


in
the
corner
crying
she
is
my strawberry
