Onan the Barbarian

Tied up
Strapped down
Poisoned ice bath we drown
Anesthesia..s full fever will follow forever these
IV eyes that pinch as they sever.

It's not so hard
You put something that kills
Into something that dies.

Locked up
Let down
Drug induced cardio frowns
Don't trip on the slippers that swallow your feet
Devour your ankles and cut you off at the knees.

Wandering these hallowed halls
Empty beds show vacant eyes
Arm and leg tender keeping up the fight
Small price when saving lives.

Laid up
Let down
Numb skin
Sharp gown
Don't trip on the slippers that swallow your feet
Your bio's been cut off from tongue and the teeth.

Is this transmission or is this a man?
These sterile halls are our home now.
Is what we love to be sold out?
This story will never be told now.
