introducing:

i am the crow that hatches in your ribcage  
pecks to get out  
from the darkened magnolia bones of your live  
automated corpse  
 
i'm a tail eating world crushing  
serpentine infinity  
i am exactly what you see when you close your eyes  
learning braille in preparation  
 
and you'll see me in the supermarket  
buying my eggs and milk  
wearing a skin almost genuine  
 
i may smile and you may feel a warmth  
emanate from the core of my expression  
a happy satisfaction in capture  
 
how do you know  
that i am a nightmare  
walking past your day  
 
like one of the flock
