i am grotesque
disgusting slop with a heartbeat
a torture chamber for the eyes
the bile rising in your throat
i am horrendous
my blood curdles at my own voice
my head screams at my own thoughts
i am discarded
broken, disregarded
just another stain of filth on your life
i am unwanted
by myself
by everyone else
by nature itself
i am nothing
a void among galaxies
carved through my being
empty for eternity
i am monstrous
destroy me before it’s too late
