Facing the Thousand

In the distance
They are circling
I watch them go around and around
Never tiring
The one near death is hypnotized and closes it’s eyes
One last time
Patiently they wait for that perfect moment to descend
And pick to pieces a once healthy
Body of passion and life
It’s me or it’s you and I get to decide
Which one lives and which one dies
Where and when
How and why
Here and now
A vital organ plucked out
Because I need to survive
Self-sacrifice is suicide
Circling with occasional cries
Of delight
Of anticipation or remorse for nature’s ceaseless patterns
Binding every being to the same sick fate
What unfortunate creature must suffer
Watching a thousand deaths spiral slowly towards it
It’s me or it’s you and I get to decide
Which one lives and which one dies
Where and when?
How and why?
Here and now
A vital organ plucked out
Because I need to survive
Self-sacrifice is suicide
What unfortunate creature must suffer
Watching a thousand deaths spiral towards it
With the will but not the strength to move on
From this place
Just close your eyes
Just breathe your last sigh
Just let go of this life
Just close your eyes
Just breathe your last sigh
Just let go
It’s come now
Your time
How do you want us to die
With regrets rotting away all of my success
With longing eating away at my fulfillment
Must every self-interested act inflict
Devastation on another
Would you rather rot or be picked to pieces still alive
How do you want us to die
