Eat Me Alive

Draw from me
The lime and shale commixing over time
In place
Of words and things that never will be mine

Sewn in place
The artisan left this place some time ago
And in her space a mirror
Lord what to think this time

I've been fed this poison since some years ago
Absorbed it through my pores and those sure I don't know's
God, pull some basting loops

Lick the wound clean
Of those nasty platelet clumps
You don't need them, you said
And heartstrings then you thumbed

When the salt poured from you like a waterfall
I cut my hands while trying to preserve it all
Don't tell you how it stung

And all hands turn ever right
And all your seeds solidify
And stain the hands inside
