voids

by Matthew Maichen

bodily rending vicious

vivisecting bleeding black

blades cutting wounds

into jagged jerky

once flesh now

pulp pounded to

gore ground on

angry teeth tearing

holes in hearts

emptied of bile

lacking brains and

hands ultimately pointless

Voids

sucking our hopes

our dreams and

desires into only

organic constructs connected

to machines making

love to breed
