Gorging food for worms...
Chop the guzzling tube
Beast of the belly
Violently starve
One dust of evil infects
Soft fruits carve
Cut the throat of
Insatiable greed
Cow-like laziness
Forcibly weed
One droplet of evil
Envenoms, lies breed
Hermetic, clogged up cortex
Insensible in rash vortex
Crush into pieces
Skulls proud
Fiercely grind
Stony, devious crowd
Spleen, gall, ill-will
Settle into putrid kill
Asphyxiating charity
Taking side with the unwise
Of green monster
Gouge out thirsty eyes!
Of avenger habituated
Rip out all veins infuriated
Wicked soul vastly mutilated...
High dudgeon strangling
Suffocating with chimeric needs
Hellion of hostility feeds.
Gut out hoggish senses
Burn away filthy urge
Fortify Herculean defenses
Tiniest drop of evil purge
In Carnal Virtues surge...
Burn to ashes ego's sighing
Doomed breathing/dying
Incinerate garbage heap
Self-decimation frighteningly deep
Gang of insolent bandits sweep!
Human nature snaky
Save from inner, outer
Heavy-handed dissipation
Cogitators lost and shaky
Catastrophic resignation.
Ax the fruitless branches
Trees barren behead
Send to the scaffold snake's head!
in good earnest to True Vine leap...
Mephitic pile of iniquity weep!
Depart into damned exile,
Lake of fetid fire
Go away! Leave! Move!
Rancorous serpent,
Scrofulous cloven hoof!
