market

from inside the display case i croon,

beckon,

beg.

have a look, won't you?

here's my ribs; all lined up neatly

one-by-one

take a lung, won't you? i don't need it anyways.

my hands? just take them

there's no use for them

now,

have a taste, won't you? i'll give you a slice, from my cheek, thigh, breast

take your pick

if you don't like it, you can just spit it out; no need to keep me, keep it

don't keep it.

i'll give you better.

how about my teeth? all arranged nicely

or how about my limbs? my digits? i've arranged them alphabetically,

just for you.

my veins are yours if you want them; i don't use them anymore, they're empty

nothing left to carry, nothing left to deliver.

take your pick, i croon, beckon,

beg.
