disgusting little red creature

disgusting little red creature
beating on the floor
with its ugly feet
like tubes — rosy and violet-colored
sucking the air like an ameoba
wanting for flavors long extinct

disgusting red little creature
pumps its little legs
spilling itself on every 
creature it lands on
like a bee stinging frozen leather
wanting for victories long extinct

ugly little red creature
transplanted itself
only to be attacked by the system
you poor, stupid thing
loitering in foreign territory
waiting for hope long extinct

little red disgusting creature
wants what it wants
and gets what it gets
stomped, and broken
until it’s just
a disgusting creature
