MEAT MACHINE

CAN YOU FEEL NOW? THE CURRENTS HAVE CHANGED A THIN LEAK THROUGH THE RATTLING OF TEETH A CLOUDY GAZE STABS THE CEILING WITH ABSENT MIND AND SAVAGE GUT A WRENCHED HEART WOULD NOT BEAR TO KEEP ME QUIET OR HOLD US CLOSE A TRACE DRAWN ACROSS THE WET FLOOR A BODY DRAGGED LIKE A CORPSE CAN YOU HEAR NOW? THE WALLS FOLDING IN LEAVE THIS HOUSE OR SWALLOW THE KEY A VIOLENT DIVE A WEIGHTLESS FALL SPREAD YOUR ARMS WHEN CLIMAX COMES SUDDENLY IT HITS A TOXIC RUSH OF BLACK ADRENALIN BUT IT FEELS LIKE HOME WATCH OUT WHAT YOU SEED IN OTHERS
