tearing the flesh from your skull

tearing the flesh from your skull
my teeth my only tool
ripping the skin from your bones
hate my only fuel

ripping you apart
like an animal
stripping your skin
like a vulture on
newly death stricken prey

protecting your remains
like a mother and her cubs
claiming you as mine
like a dog
marking its territory
