Carcass

Contributed by Robert Lyons

Gagging moist death reek,

Boiling host, entropyes heat,

Swelling cheek and empty socket,

Get in closer, the maggots creep,

Crawling over brethren legions eat,

Nurturing bounty the gorging feast,

Bringing forth the cyclical reap,

Moving forward searching for breath,

Contemplating lives endless quest.
