lamb shank
blood cake
a skinned buck
break the wishin’ bone for luck
heifer’s tongues
sow’s lights
for bigger prey
take bigger bites
the killing floor’s
garnet river
I’ve torn out the calf’s liver X
clouded eye, and breath gone
the drowned and burning ortolon
the lamb’s cry
the bull’s pride
crack the bone to marrow suck
severed rabbit’s foot for luck
silver blade
life taker
ruddy butcher
sleepless baker
red flesh
life giver
I’ve eaten rare
the calf’s liver X
the lamb’s slaughter
the butcher’s daughter
the roastin’ fire is gettin’ hotter
hog’s head
calf’s liver
life giver
drinking from the garnet river
I will live as long as I am able
then throw myself on the butcher’s table x
raw scrap
dogs fed
rendered fat
on black bread
who is strong enough to eat their dead X
