here is an illness, an agony, a pain
a degenerate systemic violence
a biologically
psychologically
generated
spiritual void
a whole unholy hole
an engine of degeneration
a current of corruption
a quantum flaw
an illness
that all men
inherit
at birth
and you
carry the cure, like a curse
in your pulse, like a purse
so much worth, its the worst
so much thirst, it hurts
these
burning
men
of earth
