Rot

Aligned with

But flora. But which flora

consumes flesh in a detritivorous manner?

Do florae possess a destiny to conquer?


Ebeneous upon thy damp walls, I

flourish with the absence of light;

growing, rapidly, I poison the air, thy lungs.


Hiant: An

insidious black hole, oozing pus of

jaundice yellow. Born with a

kismet to devour; a promise, to

labefactate. I am the

maggotorium, upon thy walls.


Necrotic fester: I am drawn to thine

olid corpse. Thy decay comprise my

pabulum; thy neck, I

querken, and siphon thy final breath.


Rot, ancient and archaic; forever, I have

spread and festered.


The difference between flora and fauna;

ubiquitously, is it not the

visceral kismet to grow versus conquer?


What if, perhaps, I am neither? Rather a

xenogeneic disease upon flora and fauna?


Yenning for thy demise; a kismet to rot.

Zealot: Phthisis’ disciple.
