Trespass along frozen lips
Etching the taste of the beast
Upon innocent tongues
Apelike hands rake anemic ribs
Leeching onto seashell skin
Invading innards like coarse sand
Burrows between fingers and toes
Arms buried in rich darkness
Voices erupting in agony
Bathing in visceral curiosity
Vagaries of human dissection
Strands of blood-soaked organs
Dangle from their shredded abdomens
Chests full of morose treasures
Spilling the floor where he dismembers
Sensations over heightening
Paranoia’s crescendo striking
Adrenal glands flood the gates
Worming through a perilous fate
The inescapable devourer
Perverting the air in putrefaction
Belching groans of hysteria
Lashing out in pangs of bloodlust
Hunting shadows dispel conscience
Clawing apart with grizzly aches
Horror drains into their souls
Rendering sweet traumatic pleas
Flailing under bars that won't recede
Lamenting death's silent reprieve
'til they black out to rot their remains
Tangled up in his white knuckles
