The shark

Salvation

I can never get away from you.

You are the slave and I am the master.

I hate you and that is why you love me.

You are only alive because of me.

Without me you cannot be

and with me you suffer.

I ignore your sensations

and do anything I fancy

because whatever gratifies is permitted.

You are heavily bleeding and screaming loudly

but, I demand more because your blood redeems me.

With you I have various choices.

I stuff your wounds with salt, bite your flesh

and use my blades, pliers, saws and barbed wires.

I like the tears on your face, the pus and the fractures.

Now, you are utterly disfigured and vandalized

and I'm seeing your reflection in the mirror.
