Swallowing the Rabbit Whole

it’s even deeper than before...

the hole has swallowed us

the prey are in control

i've seen the other side it's darker than it was

it stretches what i love until it falls apart

in the minutia and the nuance there’s a cloud heavy above

watching it inch closer - the blackest beam to take me up

i can see it couldn't touch it even from the highest rung

in this cell we call a full life - is it here i'm finally stuck

with the soldiers and all the suffering

all good men - but the smothering of what’s undone

runs

like

blood

a synesthesia filled needle pokes through the skin

how can i be so certain

that this was more than the sum of our urges

down.we.go

it felt so good to analyze and correct

but you never really know until the foot's on your neck

where will I be when i've aged and i can't connect

with these little rat fuck kids and the pigs who sign the checks

when buzzing noise rots your ears and the breaths clog your chest

or better yet what are you gonna do

when it comes your turn to pay time's debt

like birds of prey spitting out the bone

like watching my dreams come and go

you're staring into your new god's soul

i'm swallowing the rabbit whole

you're staring into your new god's soul

i'm swallowing the rabbit whole

you're staring into your new god's soul

i'm swallowing the rabbit whole
