Poems - jerks to a nailed forehead

jerks to a nailed forehead

by wylde

.

black death eats me with slippery fingers
gaunt yet fatted
from calves and spleen

my screaming cow-like eyes roll
in dizzy deserted sockets

hammer abattoir my point of drained resisting blood through the gash
of metal mesh
and my rubber innards explode

in nothingness
but intestinal gesticulations
spasmodically erratic

jerks to a nailed forehead

without horns

.

For me it brings to mind the crucifixion of the devil himself. Not being the fatted calf but possessing the torment of being an imposter. Your word play is like a painting where each color stands out vividly on its own while painting a whole picture that is clear with meaning.
