Sepsis

 

automate the mind

vaccinate the heart

automate your soul

surrender self control

to analog impulse 

 

bask in the pestilence

caress the disease

invite the malignancy

bathe in your dependancy 

of your all consuming immediacy 

 

we recoil

we recoil

don't like the touch

hate how it makes us feel

we coil

we coil

lurking to strike

against venomous appeals 

 

emotionless and mechanical in nature

we list to our sides as we refine these features

we've incorporated your cancer

wallowing in sepsis

just this (there is no)

justice (rotting at the core)

just this (there is no)

justice 

it's just

it's just

we are septic

 

we recoil

we recoil

don't like the touch

hate how it makes us feel

we coil

we coil

lurking to strike

with necrotic zeal

 

preconditioned impluse

hate your touch

programmed revolt

need... to... de... construct...

Having had blood sepsis last

Having had blood sepsis last month, I found this to be a most interesting use of the disease as a metaphor.
