Notes About The Poem

Parasite

i am...
     without mercy!
my thirst is 
     unquenchable.
i'm a predatory organism
     inhabiting 
and feeding 
     off your flesh;
latching on
     like a leech,
slurping your blood
     like Count Dracula
then licking my lips
     with delightful glee
your blood is
     my nourishment, you see.
i suck you 
     bone dry
steadily;
     draining life
out of you
     as I'm cackling
at your skeletal frame.
     you are...
my host.
