Metamorphosis

I feel it right at the heart of me

and it grips me physically

Dragging down so far below

And it’s a violent vertigo

Digging it in like a parasite

Feeding off what I keep inside

Manifest when I’m throwing trust

To the cold and the nebulous

Something’s changing

Re-arranging me

Just beginning

my own surgery

I’ll cut away everything

And tear away everything

Confining

Defining

I’ll cut away everything

And tear away everything

And I’ll escape myself

I cast off what it means to be

Ruled by the happening

Moving past the experience

Never dwell on the evidence

Breaking it off of the identity

I come and kill it when I contravene

I’m dissolving all of this

In the full metamorphosis

Something’s changing

Re-arranging me

Amputating

what I no longer need
