Septic meter

I lay bare soaking, the regurgitated night last,

No semblance of sanitation, shame aside, cast

away with prudery, as fervent drudgery,

I relish my sty, an ode, my delight.

My body decaying, scales of dry slime,

fingernailing scrapes, off peeling skin grime,

Oily Scratches, blotchy patches, hair falling first,

Cocktailing salty fluid, quenching dusty thirst,

Brackish vomit thickening, a filthy hairy mast,

Soiling my existence, a prelude to a past!
