Sexton Beetle
by Rob Littlermice in our kitchens steal cheese
from steel jaws under our sinks
and every so often one is caught,
and his breast is crushed
it is then that the death-bug will embed
in the dead tissue. black, black and orange
beetle , burying her head in the mass
of the thief’s flesh, laying her eggs
only then does this body become a womb 11/11/2011 Posted on 11/11/2011
