Popsicle (Lick my Life)
Swirling multicolored chill
Silent as my faltering will
Melting, dripping, sticky, sweet
Liquescent; raining to my feet.
Weakened, useless...emptyness
Expiring, tasty,... dribbleness
Consumed in pleasure
Nothing treasured
Dissapated & degraded...
Slip away uncontemplated...
Sobbing brains,
Kindling remains
Beaten, eaten thrown away...
Cannot last another day.
Do not weep.
I am asleep.
