"Death's Dreary Discourse"
Electrical impulses aggregate then explode
Neural fibers irritated and raw,
become victim to lightning striking twice.
This rusty cerebellum aches.
Static discharge regurgitates
10 billions cloistered ions,
all escaping an unwanted atomic asylum
where neurotransmitters congregate in madness.
Another forgotten sermon
of positives and negatives.
Neutral neutrinos shunned,
for their equivocation,
are executed without a trial
Then the weathered cranium supplicates to the weight
and collapses inwards.
Only cochlea can hear the silent screams of ions
existing for nothing more than a sip of energy
infused into their anti-static blood work
Veins coagulating with plaque
allow the hemorage to happen as
they look the other way.
Not caring about anything but their indigestion.
Grease-fat congestion.
Zero-point-o'-two reads the biphagroscope
with a cackle in its hideous eye.
Then the soul flops:
The brain is dead:
The body then dies
