A boiling pot of tar,
A gurgling spilling cauldron.
With clawed feet,
Talons that dripped in gold and gems.
A living, swelling stew,
A festering, breathing sludge.
That drowned me.
Pulling me in, deeper and deeper,
Suffocating my lungs of that precious air.
Burning my lashes and brows,
Bubbling up my nostrils.
Dousing my mind in darkness.
