crazy dream about a pile of babies in a ravine
headless bodies, neatly stacked against the wall
like cord wood
when i add my own to the pile i tip it
its a mess
im sloppy that way
instead of throwing up for days and dying of dehydration we decapitated the babies
out of mercy for them
with a sharp knife its suprisingly easy
just get it between the vertabrae
thats the trick
in a postapocalyptic setting
infused with radiation
we delivered them to the great spirit in a calm and happy fashion
we spoke to the 3-10 year old group as we gutted them
some we just nicked the jugular
others the femoral artery
some wanted the traditional grown up way to daie and those we went
navel to ribcage on
dying with nobility
serene
instead of the other way
