Sword the width of torso
already passed through
the rectum above frog legs,
bent ribs stabbing popped eyes
blade splitting throat and shoulders
senses flicked away like beetle shells
antennae on metal's reflected wire
bone clunking blade
heart's a burst berry
slipping its peel
lungs little flappers
smashed colors that leak long stems
into the uncaring earth.
