In my dreams I lay next to fishy string cheese shredded chickens
Eyes crafted from a musky dead glowing sun--layered with pig skin
I leaned my mellow masked robotic body back onto my crunchy bone bed
To rest this guilt on-top of my social-butterfly infected head
I live among my numbing sins
A smooth peacock hat and mushy cow dress hugged my curves
Fists held a urn with animals clammy preserves
and legs owned billions of earsplitting paper mache drawings
We're feeding the living
Plastic
because a heartbeat doesn't mean you're human
and somehow we've constructed a food chain
For who is most important
Our hearts burn with ignorance
Like how the trees burn for us to write things
