I am the decaying
There is no spoon,
no hunger,
the soup will spoil...
The bowl's audience
is a one man show;
the spectacular joke.
The moldy bread
cannot compare
with his sitting act
of sludged responses.
It's a whisper
of clunky exhales,
Dribbles of blinks,
and subtle rocking.
And his interaction;
confusing the meal.
He says he is 57,
but the knife heard 17,
and the tablecloth 83.
He also does magic.
The blood vanishes
into the rotting floor
as it runs off lips
and fingernails,
elbows and ears...
There is no pulse,
no response,
so the soup will spoil
after the man
takes a bow
He'll never rise from.

Some people say they haven't yet found themselves. But the self is not something one finds; it is something one creates.

Honestly, that was my favorite. You may be ill, but your mind is still working!!

My only accomplishment as an artist is I got fanart into Newtype USA's April 2006 issue. But hey, that's works for me.
And well, I haven't tried to analyze it. Hell, I was just writing how I sorta felt. Monday night I was feeling really shitty from being sick, and just just ended up writing something with a somewhat grotesque scene. Then I read "Moulin Rouge Spectacular Spectacular" on a site so I decided to incorporate acting into it with the idea of seeing an act when all the man is doing is sitting. Not as trivial as an infamous speaker merely sitting in lecture halls as people listen to his silence, but it works. And it just made a circle into death where the soup is still there spoiling, but the man is gone in a sense. The soup honestly came from me eating a bowl of soup (the only thing I ate that day) and feeling worse as I ate it. And again, the grotesque nature is me feeling like crap (although I'm sure your infection has been much worse from how it sounds x.x). All in all I didn't think too much about the meaning behind it >__>
Yeah, my explanation really didn't give a meaning, and is just long. I'll goes with yours XD He's definitely living lies though, cuz I have been as well. *cough*

If I were a tachikoma, I'd link up to someone meditating and download enlightment.

I claimed Walter from Hellsing at Bishie-Stalkers-Club! (Hahaha, he's mine biatches!)

Normally I'd want those numbers written-out, but I like them as digits in this instance.
