Grind my bones to dust
fillet my back
crack open my joints
and pour salt in my skull
not a whit of difference
would it make

For I am a man undone
broken and destroyed
Faithless, formless
without honor or pride
castrated and emasculated
pounded and pushed down
I realize now
what I am

Carrion fodder for the ambitious
hungry and rapacious
no humpty dumpty can I be
there will be no
putting back together again
I am a broken man
In body, mind and spirit

Now leave me be
for those who I am to feed
