You're too close:
staying on striking distance,
looking for less resistance,
constantly sharpening claws.
Ready to lose:
one foot to Gates of Eden,
two open mouths to feed them,
three ways to stiffen, four – to choose.
Last breath buying:
too crazy to try to take,
too human to make it faked,
too worthy to die for trying.
Getting over:
checking for reincarnation,
fighting oblivion’s nation,
trashing the heart of lover.
Burning the Cross:
banning all strikes – no distance,
begging for non-resistance,
declawing all wordy laws.
