“Messengers of warning,
An omen of death
Whose mere appearance
Leads us down an early
Path of mourning”

“Collecting thin
Stripes on your limbs
Assortments of raised,
Zombie-dead skin

I too collect marks of death
I don’t wear them on the skin of my arm,
But in the meaty crevices of my heart”

Which i’m unprepared
Leading me to where
I’m instead turning my prayer
Into a
Hey god, fuck you”
