i've been eating rat poison.
doing the rats a favour:
kissing the strong
so the weak survive.
i fell asleep with
the fishes
on a coral bed
and the scratches
up my spine
are summoning sharks.
i am god, calling wolves
to the lambing pens.
doing the young a favour:
killing them before
they grow old and die.
the sharks are circling
and the fish have all fled;
i am a fleshy buffet
laid out on the ocean floor.
scavengers are my congregation
i feed them my flesh,
sate their thirst with my blood,
and do them all a favour
with the rat poison in my soul.
