Iv. a Flytrap Slams Shut

A Flytrap slams shut
					Blink
			of
				an
		eye

And a stone
			splash
		sink
			at 	twilight

Down to the
	core
		of
			essence

Silent and formless the bottom
close eyes
strain to hear
		listen
			listen
				ah!
There is your heartbeat
	A	pair	of
				deadweight
						arms
					wrapped	around

A Parasite!
		the 	Flytrap
					closing
						
	in
						
		on
						
			yr
						
				heart

Once invisible, now bathed in the 
spotlight 
for an instant!
Kill It! 
Rip 	out 	the 	roots! 
No 
remorse! 
There! 				Aha!
The 
Thing 						
is 
dead!
and 	now 		you 			are
						ffree
