I sink

 

I sink

I merge 

I wrap myself in earth 

Til none can say where skin ceases

Or soil begins

 

One with the mud

Blood vessels like worm tunnels 

In a body of filth

Sluggishly pumped 

By my slowly encrusting heart 

 

Undisturbed

Let me lie

Let me be the buried trinket

Let me join every woman

Who has sunk

Who has merged 

Become one with the dirt

Breath no longer relevent 

To our interests.
