a beautifully
printed catalogue of dark
atrocities bleeds

transmogrify the
maggots babble into fruit
lanterns and starlight

my synapses buzz
with a chilli chemical
fizz - medication

swim in the twilight
with apples for eyes - rainbows
for tears wash me clean

the maggots babble
in my head then eat my eyes
which burst with juice - swim

I am a ghost who
stares at a wall - the clouds blow
dark and flies whisper
