surgical steel grooving flesh like;
red lines on canvas
soft, pliant, submissive, deleterious.
piquant glow, searching, testing
listless, restless eyes sheen
his cup overflows, scarlet pearls running
caressing smooth quivering skin, spilling streams
staccato rhythms pounding into murky blood
throbbing head, dripping fear, fingers fluttering
smearing hues of belligerence
incarnadine inkblot rorschach
crimson flies splatter in peaks and valleys
in ridges and creases
dirt, dust, filth, rotting thoughts
creep like sludge, pouring out
through cracks and tears
crevices of light, shelves that hold glass
jars; striated strips of meat
swirl endlessly like
whirlpools of decayed residue
emptying cages of sharp bone
muscle torn and ripped
into shreds and rags
into bounding rope
gleaming voids of empty screams
and empty eyes;
dead like autumn leaves.
