Failed Technique

Take away my presence.

To you I offer my
skin,
muscle,
and bone.

Strip me of existence,
but leave my soul behind.

It's all I need.

Take away all sensation.

To you I offer my
nerves.
Numb my
limbs.

Strip me of my senses,
but leave my instincts in tact.

They're all I need.

Destroy it all. Everything.
Ground all that I am into dust

but be warned--

memories aren't so easy to kill.
