Splat

A red dye sinks into my teeth
Pulsing down my throat
Cancering my stomach as it rots away
White antibodies have no answer
Laying down their lives in a noble cause
My life
Saving it
To no effect.

I’ve swallowed poison and by goodness it
Tasted lovely.
Like cherry coke
Plug in early coz I need the money
Hand out please
Slip it in my back pocket
Eat a wallaby and hop to work
Noise overhead
I hear nothing
Splat!!!
