Grind it down
redbrown between teeth we no longer use right
Break it down
take the thing apart and additive it to me
feel it in the sound of tendons shearing
hear it in the taste of uncooked prey

Feed from death
the grimgreen bushes that thrive in the stonegardens do
The brown rips through the terraskin and sinks rootfangs into its meat
the greywriggle pulpae mass eat their fill
Belly up to the death bar
Where all the colors mingle

Green tastes like nothing to me
Water and paper
Strawling draggers across my palate
If it gulped air in great bursts of life
If it strodehugged the ground glad at each step
I want to kill it 
I want to make it me

When I go they'll do the same to me
In tribute
My living breathing moving brothers will chew their fill
Even the stiffbacked watchers will eat
Take this, all of you, and eat it
This is my body
Which will be given up to all of you
As they've given it up to me
At our fraternal sacrifice

Copperbleeding
When I go leave me out for them
Leave me for them
As they have left theirs for me
