Caterpillar

The 2 A.M Writer

Failure to be born of above seed

Guess it's my fault I couldn't swim fast enough

Futile egg and spitting, screaming larva

Stunted development and clogged cognitive

Tested in the tube, might as well be sewn together

Within a wall, somewhere deep, I have a dim light

...

Moaning into a soaked pillow

Stop needing the wet nurse for 5 minutes

Dead skin, but no metamorphosis

Guess I'll never be a butterfly after all

Do we share a same suicidal wish?

Real question is double or uno?

...

Spread your seed they always say

But what's worth the seed of a wilted plant?

...
