comeuppance
September 17, 2005

standing
drying
dying
cut
twisted
mother, i thirst
mother, i bleed
mother, i die
absent
an answer
for the hairless ape
declares her dead
seizing power
he manipulates
for it is his way
life destroyed
paved over
mindless
he aligns
her virtues
against the design
forcing her
to his will
for it is his right
and she must yield to him
until her life fades
and he holds in his claws
her corpse
and sees it
as his own
