the yearning
of truth
i search
to find
its so fleeting
i can grab
its essence
its shadow
but
i want its body
the body of truth
it's whole being
and i want to dig down
to its core
weep into its pores
to its skull
down its spine
and cry out
its secret
and
let it crawl
inside
me
into my skull
down my spine
and let it
consume me
from the inside
out
until
i stop breathing
leave my body
and become
the truth
silently bursting
ripe
with nectar
forbidden tongues
taste this
sweet sin
it is the truth
but
knowledge
is
deceit
don't let her
fool you
death
lies beneath
her sweet
fruits
