Object of Desire

Intruders live in your head.

They remade the curriculum

And the flesh.

They remade it all in lust, 

Draped it all in taboo,

Squeezed it all into shame,

And called the body sex. 

The internal colonizer cannibalizes,

And a body is an object of desire

That is tired of being conquered and consumed.
