Blank
Breech
Starch
Lurk
Inside
And I found her
She oozed with steel
Onward forward
Deeply and lightly
My blood
A dragon
I speak fire
Jelly causes sores
I'm sore all over and nowhere

Tender cuts of love
Disection
Is it she
Could she love me
Can she love me
Shell after shell
It hurts to think
And I ponder at the wonder
In plural
Does she pray?
Am I prey?

The strength of reality
Demands honesty
This path in a shovel
Of crazy...
It hurts to think...
There are no salts
In my tears

Rebel
Solstice ignorant
Equinox
God doesn't wear socks
Cotton doesn't declare war
Rabbits and bunnies run swiftly
Bushy tails and eyes
And secrete secrets
Words of war
Trap,
Keep the flies
In my jar
Slowly remove the lid
And breathe spiders
With eight legs
And silky
Shinny
Moist
Webs
Its time for a bloody feast

Does she pray?  Am I prey?  The strength of reality demands honesty and this path is in a shovel...

Now this I like! Not all but certainly parts of it, for instance:

"She oozed with steel"

"God doesn't wear socks
Cotton doesn't declare war"

Fantastic lines I'm sure you won't mind me stealing. Just kidding, good stuff!

Yeah, I think God's feet must be rather raw...
