Lover, dear, of blood-drained dead
Of flesh made sheet, of bone made gel
Of heart made cold, no beat to spill
From open wounds of spear and pellet
Liquid, life. Long gushed and hardened
Dark, upon the tiles
Of abattoir, I know you, love
Yet still I slip in puddle, blood
Come hard to Reaper's crimson cloak
And mourn all death in Death's embrace

------
The answer to EVERYTHING!!!:- The Cycle.
Spread the word man!

well-written and good use of imagery. Pools of blood are the price of McDonalds.

Metaphor or Commentary?
Actually, until I read Jonathon's comment I hadn't thought to take your title literally. I enjoyed reading this more from that straight-forward perspective. I am curious as to whether that was your intention? Is this a comment on eating meat, a metaphor for something else or both?

Theories Welcome
It is as it proclaims, Hazelfaern, a poem to and about meat-eating partners. It would, though, be amusing to see people wriggling out of the personal relevancy of this piece by digging out a deeper meaning. Lol

Love it!
I love it. I'd forgotten about the title and was fantasizing about murder in a tiled room.
