Spit Me Out
Tenderness is stooped with rage
torn by those anxious eyes
with the scent of a rotting phage
memory a corpse surrounded by flies
Pity slowly weeps from my bones
in spurts of sweet release
the dry rivulet quietly groans
as thoughts bleed and quiesce
Peel these sweet rivers of flesh
in an aching back arch quiver
from the mound spews afresh
cold eyes a mischievous sliver
From your mouth, trickles of doubt
slick hatred oils my glistening skin
open wide and you spit me out
slit under your nose cracks a grin
torn by those anxious eyes
with the scent of a rotting phage
memory a corpse surrounded by flies
Pity slowly weeps from my bones
in spurts of sweet release
the dry rivulet quietly groans
as thoughts bleed and quiesce
Peel these sweet rivers of flesh
in an aching back arch quiver
from the mound spews afresh
cold eyes a mischievous sliver
From your mouth, trickles of doubt
slick hatred oils my glistening skin
open wide and you spit me out
slit under your nose cracks a grin

Very nice my poet.. I see you are very adaptable as well as versatile, and be advised I am definitely feeling the vibe of the picture.. You really ought to consider entering this musing in Rains' competition, your piece is very relatable to her dark themes... good morning and continue to enjoy this Thursday in all its splendid glory

Thank you very much and thanks for the recommendation. 🙂 I have indeed entered her contest. We should all be versatile as writers methinks. Too easy to get pigeonholed by writing about the same things over and over. Life is variety so why not write about all of it? Have a great evening. 🙂
