FOOD
It is the custom to crack
Open the shell
And eat of its fruit.
But what if you are inside
Cocooned in a fetal position
And along they come with sharpened picks
To hack at your security
Plucking you out into chaos.
If only you had left me alone
Safe and warm from the teeth of the external
Why did you crack open the safety of my domain?
To cut me to pieces and devour me.
I am ravaged by your gluttony
Exposed to a multitude of sins
Yet too broken to return.
If only you had left me alone
Open the shell
And eat of its fruit.
But what if you are inside
Cocooned in a fetal position
And along they come with sharpened picks
To hack at your security
Plucking you out into chaos.
If only you had left me alone
Safe and warm from the teeth of the external
Why did you crack open the safety of my domain?
To cut me to pieces and devour me.
I am ravaged by your gluttony
Exposed to a multitude of sins
Yet too broken to return.
If only you had left me alone
