Hollow Ways

It starts with a blade
To peel back the skin
Revealing the maggots
Living within
Each one of them having a name
Inside I allow them to grow

Piled on top , one by one
Are the worms that will dictate my memory
Are the maggots infecting my will to be
Growing inside of my circuitry

Leave me, for I will not die alone
For the worms are imbedded in every bone
And my temple is home to the giant leech
Who whispers the words that I slowly preach

It sucks the divine from my bitter soul
And hides there inside of the empty hole
Crawling through tunnels and hollow ways
Infecting me ,even through better days
