i slit open
my belly
letting the fires
of hell blacken
the blade
as magma drips
in smoldering
tear drops
etching runes
down tired cheeks
shredded flesh
revealing damnation
in fractured bone
every tyrannical
arc of blinding
agony calls
forth an army
of desolate truth

i am the sum
of incomprehensible
emptiness colliding
with universal neglect
a stray photon
in negative
phosphorescence
a hint of a memory
the nothing
sitting quietly
in the darkness
a lexicon of evil
carved indelibly into
a hollowed out husk
