Black, cold depths entomb Eyes gaze with a lifeless stare Saltwater and gases bloat this monstrosity A hideous state of decomposition Saturated flesh pitted and blue Digits chewed to shreds Skull housing microscopic organisms Bacterium feast on dilapidated brain matter Orifices filled with minute parasites Pressure causes anus to burst forth entrails Waterlogged corpse drifts with the tide Fish nibble on this rotted husk Washed upon a barren shore Entangled in seaweed and algae Bodily fluids released onto the sand A free flowing stream of excrement Sun beats down on this swollen sack Causing skin to dry and crack Crustaceans bore through Feeding on rented meat Insects inhabit the carrion shell Planting their seed Carcass will be utilized As a host to newborn larvae
