Replenish

We ran through their minefield mazes
losing appendages in hopes of honesty
we never received

Reeled in like an ironic boot
and then worn in private
like a joke trophy

Why do they cut coke on mirrors?

If I were digging too deep 

you wouldn't follow

We spend the slowest to replenish

foolishly? thinking of a return 

because that's how normal humans behave

They were never human

I know because I cannot kill them

and I tried

Their blood is thin and artificial and ivory

That's why they want ours

That's why they love us to love them

so they can sustain off of pinpricks

That's why they are whores

They are self-centric whores

Sickness riddling catacomb interiors

hollowed out spaces for them to store

with direct silence

but they shout in the subway 

And we tire of longing

we tire of famine

So we should gnaw through metal restraints

and we should find each other

if we even exist anymore

And we do

Of course we do

Because we replenish 

Regardless we replenish

In the midst of replenishment

especially we replenish
