It bites me.
Like a sudden wave, I am overcome.
Now, the venom paralyses-
I can't move though I still feel the pain
(evolution deems anaesthesia unnecessary).
I feel it crawling, turning on my back.
I can barely breath...
but I do anyway, worse luck!
It cuts into me, at it's own leisure,
it can take it's time. I offer no barrier to it's intentions.
I don't bleed enough for it to matter.
There's a pushing and scraping, then it flies away.
I sit, wondering if it is over?
Then....
a strange tickling occurs,
faint at first, though I still can't move.
Then the penny drops.
There's something inside me.
Something tiny, for now...
It's eating me!
I can't move.
My life force used only to keep me fresh
whilst it dines in comfort.
There's no way back, or forward.
Twinges of pain as nerve matter is consumed.
I wait until I, am no more.
it takes it's time
I quiver, as it's increasing, tremulous volume ascends toward my cranium
never quite killing in it''s careful consumption.
I fear my brain is on the menu.
I hear the scraping, like heavy breathing on my neck.
This is it. My destiny.
The ultimate insult to my dignity.
A pure and necessary evil.
