Insane
blessed and crucified
baptized in blood and warm milk
-living hate running from old veins
The hole filled with bittersweet black dirt
Fossilized remains of souls-
-the empty fragile shells are scattered through the upturned soil
The mangled dreams lay dying in warm hands
held for safe keeping
Wipe the last trace of bleeding purity from its broken form
Let it disappear in that dark pit, the desolate cave of fear
