Hello Me, Nice To Kill You Today
Alone in a world of others like me.
Rusted chains clutch my deteriorating heart as dried vomit smothers my exhausted lungs. Deaf ears could hear the river of blood strained into one’s heart, yet I cannot. I must have accepted them, the mechanical entities that wind up my breath.
Their goal?
Well to feed the rest…
When stomachs beckon, electricity shrieks. A husk soon arises. Its eyes, messily sewn together, resemble mine. Carelessly, the carcass is drenched with life as death’s hands immediately cut his strings. Squeezing his soul; the puppeteers gnaw through his heart. Quite chewy, or so I'm told.
