wasters

Creepy crawlers
                              Cover my skin 

                                                             In and out 

                             My body within 

I hate the feeling

                            Of ants and worms 

                                                       penetrating flesh

                            My body, warm 

But I deserve this

                             Neck deep in sand 

                                                            Wasting away

                                 For this land 

I do not own.
