Stench

By Swooping Synod


timid
wretched
disfigured
and blurry bits
of honesty pollute
the dead oxygen we breathe

spinning like a
merry-go-round
burying you into
the skies ground

dripping
with pale blood

loathsome bile
vomitted onto
pavement
god of the gutter
lick it up

wading
in the waves
of worrysomeandering
changing the meaning of meaningless
pain caused upon you
now worn with
smiling

seen from
upside down daisies
dangling

discharging death
and denial

spit acid on her

drilled into
the ground
headless daisy
grow me back
watch me wilt

in a sea of
good intention

wading
in the waves
of worrysomeandering
changing the meaning of meaningless
pain caused upon you
now worn with
smiling

seen from
upside down daisies
dangling

discharging death
and denial

floundering
fish
out of water
suffocate
on air

why you?
why anyone?

shallow scorpion
stinging shadow

prey on me
pray for me

so i won't destroy
you with myself like a good
samaritan smoking
crack from the bottom of scraped
shoes bought at a
Salvation Army going out of
business sale
damaged fucking goods
sold as new

erect a
post-modern statue
of my likeness

a fly
on shit

flush this life
spiralling counterclockwise
into the air
levitating the likes of
lichen lacerating
luminous lungs
gasping

this smell is
horrendous
as is the view

the beak of the ibis
dipped in blood

tortured beyond pain

one of your lies is
still rattling around
inside my head

a thousand
dying locusts

chirping
rattling the cages
of my minds
prismatic prison
harnessing planted
shardshifting
control

stay away from me
i can't be held
responsible
for what
might..

happen

or write your will
and
stick your tongue into
the grim reaper's mouth

prey on me
pray for me

a fly
on shit

you barrelass bitch
just dumping off
this and that
with no thought
at all

what are you
gaytarded
you droaded
derelict

suck on this

werewhore
wipe the
blood from
your fangs

broken needle
buried into
your soul

cry for me
cry on me
