Girl Who Would Not Die

She slipped away
Through abandoned streets
Sliding under landfill eyes
Watching the recently deceased
Dance the slow disease
Before joining the disjointed
She fell away
Not because she slipped
No
She swan dived out of my arms
Disappearing into the flying sparks
Of a dumpster fire
Or was it her life
That was so pungent
In its destruction?
I was the only man in ten years
She never stabbed once
I take it that
She loved me
In her way
Against her will
But that appetite ate her whole
Before regurgitating what was left
Like owl pellets
Made of girl who would not die
But oh, how she tried
