Passing the plates while
Their stomachs roar
Off to the fiend's polite
Request for more
Swallowing kills
"Auch"
Savoring kills their souls
Vomiting kills their jaws
Swallowing kills their throats
Chewing the gristle
With eyes on the drain
Of the bathroom sink
In the room off the main
Swallowing kills
"Auch"
Savoring kills their souls
Vomiting kills their jaws
Swallowing keeps their
Numb guts
From writhing
Around like
Earth worms trapped in a storm drain
They lick their faces with
Pallid tongues that stretch
All the way from ear to smile
With hollow pleasantries
Oozing from the corner
Of their slacked mouths all the while
Fully coated with saccharine bile
"Pardon me, please"
"Pardon me, please"
