"The lingering is too much to bear now. At this point, I feel the wanton locomotion of the maggots burying ever deeper."

"Day in and day out they continue funneling me with the rancid milk and fermented honey...to sustain me.

"The vermin have arrived to gnaw my rotting flesh. The eroding gases seemed to have satiated their appetite even further."

" Their knives burn as the corroded steel burrows the fascia of my flesh, leaving tenderized morsels for the animals of Midland Marsh to come alive."

" Every passing moment, my flesh sloughs off and is congealed with excrement and emesis as a gruel for the creatures."
7.
"Haunting visions of beasts past and present continue to recharge my nourishment in order to prolong the suffering."

" The fevers are ephemeral but constant and I'm reduced to a sail, no, a mere drape of putrefied muck."

"I'm raw upon the sun, looking with a southward eye. Beholden with flies and finally escaped to death."

about

A mini EP concept album of the sordid type:

Dr. Pierce, one of the Northwest regions most sadistic and sardonic psychiatric practitioners, has met his match within the confines of the Westwood Sanitarium. There, his failed attempts of wanton humiliation and that of deconstructing the essence of Paige, the unsung leader of Ward H-311, has come to a head. The riots and subsequent fires only served as fodder for her delivery of aggregated forced psyche meds and kidnapping of Pierce. Quite fitting, as was done to her decades ago.

The small group, commandeered by their mute leader, made their way deep into the surrounding forest of the Farell Marsh loop. Years in the making all came to this moment as all of them could see the two boats that were awaiting their newly defrocked state sanctioned prize.

Half awake, Pierce could clearly see the jars of milk and honey being dispensed much like the unwanted forcing of medications he ordered upon hundreds of Westwood Patients.

His body was nearly lifeless from the meds. The ropes didn't even need to be that tight, but they made sure they were able to keep him floating.

Days had passed, but the damage had already been done since day one. The sequence had started: Vermin, birds of various orders, maggots cleaning the wounds, and the swelling and breakdown of the body that once was Dr. Pierce.

Conscious until the slow end he could barely make sense of the horrors that were consuming him.

This is the plight and conquest of Paige. This is Pierce's very last image superimposed over the heat of the sun as his heart and head had come to a halt.
