Candle

by Feyd - Cancer

Flicker on,
low groaned belly ache,
become wide-mouthed to the air's flavor
adding rich spice to your increasing tongue.

Wavering blue bodied yellow hair
grows with every swallow,
casting its smile on deepening walls,
blind to the shortage of rope.

You will vulture the basement
of your shrinking home,
thirsty and crazed,
until you are a drifting silence
of burnt perfume.
