In The Gullet (kernel)
One kernel down the gullet morphed me

one grain of truth
not the serum to cure
but seal me from the world still burning
rejecting
can’t see you, or feel you
with that growth in my gut

I could stare at a setting sun like a dull wall

spirits having flown into the hardened ground
an earlier burial
let me live
should I suffer who would mind
not me

my grave was long ago dug
let me just sing above it and not below
another night

We're all gonna die...why can't I live?
Cures for depression not the right fit...but what's another pill down?
