OCD Zombie by Deanna Murri
a feral hunger holds me close
squeezing organs like oranges
‘til they seep sticky stuff that defies control
‘til I’m forced to make a move
to move devolved.
a primal beast with eyes for teeth
that I send searching into the gelatinous mass,
because I make the rules
and I bite
a compulsive convulsion
there is no stopping the hunger
