Literature Text

Glowing denial.
Stick of Death.
It's just a fucking cigarette.
Burn my tongue,
Raped esophagus.
Little trails of ash –
on my car, my shirt, my tummy…
Down the hatch!
Breathe deeper.
Live quicker.
Die predictably.
Carpe diem.

Crystallize my lungs,
Can you chill my heart?
Rot my voice.
Steal my air.
Take your time.
Give me scars.
Erode me away.
Fry my nerve endings and synapses.
Do your worst, Father Antagonist –
Saviour in disguise.
But don’t forget, you promised:
Teach me how to die.
Give you a dollar if you come up with a name I like for this one.
There might be a reward if you make me a preview, too.
