Cut away and start again

Cross out these serpentine eyes

Milk them for all they're worth
Shatter the white with Jane doe hammers
Slay the beast with three billion heads


Through noise and movement, filth is revealed
I can smell the decaying musk

Stale breath reeks of lust and violence
And shaking hands reveal the rest


For I am nausea
From you to me
A new slate is needed for this cannot be cleaned


Insight crawls, drunk and bruised
Deep within the leaden grey

But majority rules with iron fist
So swallow the blood and cover the face


To turn the other cheek
Or cut it open and rip out the tongue
For now and for this

Forgiveness is rot

I'd trade it all for a chance to mend

To kill, to cleanse, to purge, to end

Loathing saturates, sour and foul

Only to be eclipsed by the sorrow
To cut away those close and near
Pull back the hammer and let it swing

Let it swing
