hungry like a hostage
chew on bones,
live white human bone,
kind sunk deep in crypts,
raided out sulky tombs,
heavy and moss covered
thoughts,
bones under the current
weighted down by rocks,
weathered
smooth by a thousand
years of sloth,
starving,
bite down on flesh,
draw blood like words,
dilutes to be read,
jagged lines,
scrawled by skinless hands,
held in place,
sedimentary violence,
irremediable.
