i need you to crawl beneath my skin
sharpen your teeth to gnaw through my tendons
suck the marrow straight out of my bones
breathe in my blood until we’re both finally alone
stretched until torn
the seams of our skin will split
our souls will spawn
there is no part of me that doesn’t want to be a part of you
i am not enough to feed my own happiness
threaded flesh pressed against my head
we are wedded whether wanted or not
our blood will clot
our spit will congeal
we will rot - we will heal
threaded flesh pressed against our heads
threaded flesh to tie a noose around my neck

Her head like a dragonfruit of flesh
Before she formed true sense
Before her life even got complex
Her head like a dragonfruit of flesh
Before she got a chance to fall in love
Before her father could begin to fathom
Her head like a dragonfruit of flesh
Slaughtering the innocent
Harvesting the helpless
Unforgivable Unforgettable
We must bare witness
To the infant with a bullet wound through the head
To the newborn disconnected at the torso
To the toddler no longer with limbs
We must all bear witness
His stomach like squid out of water
Before he could stand up and walk
His stomach like squid out of water
Before he even put a sentence together
Her head like a dragonfruit of flesh
His stomach like squid out of water
Her head like a dragonfruit of flesh
Flesh become roots
Roots become ribbons
Ribbons wrapped around every martyred soul
