Talking to Death

This is to Death:

"You bastard, you fiend!
You've laid all your shadow
Over the core of my heart

Death:—
The proximal lacerations of your swings
Still sting and radiate outward and inward

The way you cling and fasten yourself
To any light lit so luminously in the dark
Disgusts me

Death:—
Even you must die
Even you must destroy yourself"

– M.M.
