The Ripe Beneath The Rind

(álbum: The Harvest Floor - 2009)

Flesh shall flay
Peeled back exposing the nutrients of contents of mammal
Nutritious, delicious fruit

The stratified-squamous: keratinized
Epithelia dissected
Pseudo-stratified columnar, uni-cellular goblets (cells) secreting mucus
Gored out

The flesh is ripened ready to gorge
Visceral contents empty on the floor
Like a fine wine the organs disgorge
Victim lies begging but I'm wanting more
The pain is insane, a new anus is torn

Gaping slice
Opened wide, peeling rind bleeding, spurting everywhere...
(now revealing the salty goodness beneath and flash frying it)
Lancing meat
Tender outside juicy inside disgusts me...
Chopping, dicing, scrutinizing, dissecting and separating

A corpse is still a corpse, of course we dine with no remorse

We've sharpened all the knives to know the ripe that's beneath the rind
A blood lust curiosity, what makes these humans tick?
I've known it all my life...
BLOOD

Flesh shall flay
Peeled back now exposing the nutrients of contents of mammal
Nutritious, delicious fruit

The stratified-squamous: keratinized
Epithelia dissected
Pseudo-stratified columnar, uni-cellular goblets (cells) secreting mucus
Gored out

And like a wild boar your head is hunted
And like a cantelope your head is opened
And like a pork belly your skin seared sterile
And underneath it lie the lies, the murder, the man, the meat
