Ecchymosis

inflamed by its sputtering, cavity muttering- opened by oaken and metal frame fluttering, lapsing from pavement and pierced into meat. uttered uncomfortably, aortas ushering, sizing in varicose clumps that then gush and bleed- underneath- addling- marrow now callousing, blood pools in pockets that rise then fall avidly, omen of tragedy- spilling haphazardly- out through the holes in the abdomen cavity, ribs weaving in with the antlers and atrophy, breaching the velum, the lungs, and the tapestry matting the fur and impairing anatomy, mottled in apathy- unsatisfactory, violently waning to seize. soothing the battery bathed in a subtlety gathering suddenly, proboscis covering- over the spills- haemolacria bubbling, butterfly, moth, and diptera now summoning- spreading, embedding their needles and string. bleating, unfleeting lachryphagous meaning, now turning the pool to a flowering weave.
