Forever A Slave

I bit the hand that feeds me,

because it feeds me dirt.

Blood ran down my throat,

and I swallowed every drop.

 

The taste lingered for eternity.


Cast away the serpent!

Your efforts are in vain.

It contorts around your throat,

and you are forever a slave.

 

A wolf in the distance stares you down,

you run toward it with open arms.

A vulture in the sky circles over you,

you cut your throat and cut your losses.

 

You are forever a slave.

This is about how, although sexuality is pretty cool, there is a very scary and exhausting side to it.
