The Cannibal Within
I felt myself fill with fear
I only stared at the water
We got in a boat
Days passed
And nights
Afraid of the cannibals
The crew wouldn't go to tahiti
Should have been afraid
OF the cannibal within
we shouldn't
we must
not yet
soon
the captain holds the tip of
his saber
he rips open his own throat
his body falls to the floor
of the boat
like a bone among
starving dogs
i will always know
i am drinking blood
we drank
we ate
we slept
human
blood
flesh
