I Am Chromosome

Martin Grech

3

I'm the coil unfolding, screw back up

I'm the flower unfurling, buttercup

fill it up to a bursting

fill it up

I'm the bridge that is breaking under foot

bring the meat to the boil

serve it up

leave the body to spoil

let it rot

stick a head on a plate

frenzy food

take a knife to the limb

six-foot cook

all my dreams are nightmares

foolish baby boy

reflect, reflect

i remember the moment I wake up

was the reason I torture myself was

i've been chosen to carry this burden

scratch my tissue with finger, nails and thumbs

collar-blade from a swan

sharp and cold

pull a bone from the arm of your son

how you disappoint me

you'll be forgotten

i live in a fantasy

where I am dead and worshipped

people adore and love me

poor boy what pain you felt

my body floats like dead wood

replace my limbs with branches

i am chromosome

i am chromosome

result, result

result, result

result, result

result, result

result, result

result, result

i am chromosome

get away from here

go away go away from here

now
