Showers of needles
Piercing silken skin, pin holes, rivulets
of blood
Ruptured arteries, the pulsating
flow, venting
Crimson agony
Mutilated senses
The flood of endorphins, pain, intoxication
Rushing adrenals, the pounding arrhythmia
Of a broken heart
Tear meat from the bone
Rent flesh, a breakfast for crows,
carrion devils
With their whips of fire, languishing
in the feast, fear
Limp, broken bodies
Children at play, like
Chicks in the yard, they cost, the
weak among them
Trampled in the dust, they peck to
death the different
Leave them for the worms
A new bath of shame
Our tragedies of romance, exposed,
horrified
Petulant artists, relent, lament
entropy
Heat death and drowning
The loss of passion
Patterns of nihilism, hemlock and self-doubt
