as i ripped and peeled chunks of cold flesh

in a desperate attempt to satiate myself

their faces lied every truth

thinking, unfeeling

i found it was wire my hand mercilessly tore through

it was warmth i found in the machine

i saw her screams

the static, the divine

her soul 

i devoured an angel

though machine, it thought

I had just read your other poem “49229145”and wanted to read something else of yours. So my thoughts are as follows.
This poem is much more visceral and dark than 49229145 but that’s not a bad thing. As before I get cyberpunk vibes with at least both of your poems thus far and this piece reminds me of the anime ova’s during the Japanese economic bubble of the 80’s to early 90’s. AD police files comes to mind in particular where a specialty police force is tasked with eliminating “boomers” using brutally violent tactics.

I am curiouse as to what inspired these pieces.
