I’m going out tonight,
a zombie on the streets.
Decked in black jeans,
a sweatshirt,
and headband from nineteen ninety eight
back then.
I used to even ski!
And in these clothes
I will feast.
On passerbys.
Others will watch and think
we’re just pretending.
But, I won’t be kidding,
I will eat.
In an attempt to calm me.
A bite of them and I will be forgiven
in the name of Jesus. Amen.
My victims will experience martyrdom.
Be seated, sir, at the right hand of our lord.
I will be forgiven.
In the name of Jesus, I feast.
For I’m eating thee with regards of the spirit.
Welcome to my church.
Your body is my temple
and to this I pray.
Amen.
Now say thirty Hail Marys
For now I eat.
A city full of sin,
Of gays,
And bars,
And junkies.
I won’t have trouble.
I will find my congregation
Ten Bloody Marys deep.
Thy will be medium rare,
On earth as it is at dinner,
Amen.
I will eat
I will raze the trash bins
and pick out everything
behind maternity wards.
Unborn,
like a demon.
And I will be forgiven
and seated, with respect.
In my vicious martyrdom,
of which you’ll all be victims,
I am forgiven
My acts are justified
for I am legion.
