Seize the day
Grab it by its throat
choke it
crush each fragile bone
listen for the moan
carpe diem
seize the day
chase it all the way home
rape it
flaunt it
watch and make it moan
Carpe diem
Seize the day
say it
write it
live it
then beat it
to death.

I love the fact that you put it in the "weird" category.
...personally, I wouldn't say weird. It felt like a call to every cell of the body, to live the moment, and seize the day. Great poem.
