THE THEORY OF RECEIVING
<p>The virus that creeps into the marrow, latent</p><p>Eager to dent,</p><p>It's the dark silence gradually causing a gape,</p><p>Feeding on raw flesh till it hits the core,</p><p>The doom that lies serene in weak bones,</p><p>It's death,</p><p>It's earth,</p><p>The unseen hands that rend the carrion left,</p><p>It's smoke,</p><p>It's shadow,</p><p>The rotting feet that hastens to extract viscera,</p><p>It's horror,</p><p>It's terror,</p><p>Strange philosopher that propounded the theory of receiving,</p><p>It's the oceans and the lands,</p><p>It's the soil that never gets tired of accepting cold meat (corpses)</p><p>It's the clenched fist that always receives,</p><p>Cold, </p><p>Lifeless, </p><p>Breathing in subtle relive after receiving,</p><p>Gathering headstones to itself like a monumental piece,</p><p>It is death.</p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>
