PIGS

The pigs will nibble on your remains.
They will snort and scurry about what's left of you
and they will chew and push and roll and bite
at what was once your most prized possession.

They rend and devour
they hunt and they peck
the pigs will crush you
bit by bit
beneath their bitter teeth.

The pigs
who have nothing against you
will do as they must
do to you what they will
because it has been willed.
Because it is what you deserve.

The pigs will destroy you
because you asked too many stupid questions.
