TWO BLOODS


this foreign world, with her dramatic posers and diverse faces, 
has become familiar.
the streets are a chaos my feet can trace.
the heart beating of this city is loud, 
heavy, and diseased. 
i can feel her blood, pumping.
there is a lake in the middle, 

between the shards of glass and metal

scarlet waters, salty and thick, rising and narrowing; 
shadowing the chaos

she flails, drowning, drinking the blood that drowns her
stomach of an empty black hole.
another blood splits through her. darker, richer, more scarlet.
a nourished blood that rivers into my veins. 
a blood she doesn't want. refuses to taste.
a blood, savagely rejected.
