A Poem

By D351Published 2 years ago 1 min read

Unfit for Human Consumption

Expired mid-production

Poorly preserved

Mismixed and contaminated

Designed for self-destruction

I was poisoned at conception

Spoiled shortly thereafter

Taught wrong as less than a joke

An amalgamation of indifference

The detritus of a family's corners

The dirt not worth cleaning

Keeping company with spiders

And better vermin than myself

Stinking of almond and rat shit

A drunken colonizer from Hell

I spread a kingdom of suffering

Unfit for human consumption

My heart makes sweetness sour

Bleeding salt and infertility

Blasted soul of carcinogens

And forgotten wilting flowers

Held dearer than I could be

A mess not worth cleaning up
