Red Meat

Fuck meme
And meditation
This posture of submission
As my hands turn to claws
On my thighs
Thickened
Fingernails make crescent moons
That rise up and run red
I find myself
Clenching for a fight
I have no maker
To whom I bow
This light in my mouth
I am spitting it out
Blood and spit
Blood and spit
Blood and spit
Pooling around this blissful sit
And it is mine
And I am done
With dumb numbing
From Bottle or buddha
Both have run my gullet raw
Down to nerve endings
I loosen my jaw
As acids riled and rising
Raise all contents
That cannot help but spew
I can no longer clot or chew
Blood and vomit
Blood and vomit
Blood and vomit
Rising from corroding pit
And it is mine
And I chose this
Fuck meme
And meditation
To my own
Meat makeup
I submit
