Eternity

Eternity is - thisness
Fire scuttering through extremities
Spitting screams after frozen silences
Where fear things and rages are
One; yellow-toothed gnawing
The colour of damnation
Hanging before -- a death
In lonely places, steel smelling
Of larger shapes, cats on two legs:
Fear you? - death fears you? -
If you are brave enough! Oh if!
Why else traps like paradise
Leaving you writhing broken-boned
Shattering - staring at cheese
You will never eat. Death is -
this hunger
not going away.
