The Star is His Gateway

They found the body
by a lean bright star
His heart was removed
His brain still charged

From the deep red sea
to grey surgery
the experts carved
a functional shell

Because they want to
embody the essence
of freedom

Because they need
Only hunger
and impulse

Because hatred
is only love
defined by a holy book

New eagle eyes see all
New elephant heart
pumps black blood
The nerves removed
The spine is
a crucifix

They want his sex
They want his blood
He has nothing to give

He is not here
He is in the star
Spinning
