Secretly escorting me

Their buzz obsesses

Swarming in the unseen

I sense their being on my skin

Strange flies lead my death

My flesh's their nest

Curling up on myself

In a pupating state

Slowly joining their breed

Soaking up all their seeds

My voice is crackling

My bones shriveling to crumbs

Strange flies lead my death

My flesh's their nest

Curling up on myself

In a pupating state

Figures in a hollow mass

Wander in my subconscious

Vortex of shivering wings

Spirals at the doors of death

Mesmerizing

They came for me
