Glitches

It was more than
I could take.
The phallic paranoia.

Can I come out of 
your body and kneel
before death ?

Less than dark
I dream of the nipples
spurting out venom.

A pumice raft
of the crowd, sailing
on the waves of narcissism.

Invisible sharks
on high seas
open the lambs for salt.

Can you eat your
words please ?
There is nothing left on the plate.
