face validity

crawl

you can't come back

crucified

you can't maneuver round'

this sink-hole

without my permission

i grant exclusive rites

to those who own

more than a fraction of my bone

i sing

let the flames begin

with you a carnal sin

blank i turn within

forgotten my.self in sin

fragile i crawl

around you pound

undone i run

into your wall i stall

my fateful pounding

i lost my grounding

fall, fall

lower i'm slower and can't move

beyond this pond i

sink beneath your filth

i tithe i ride and i cannot deny

i cannot buy

your misbegotten

goods

guarantees no longer
