The House Of The Silent And Friendly

"Skulls stripped of hair and skin 
stashed on the shelves 

-and in the fridge- 

a pail full of hacked off hands 
a torso in the kitchen sink 
ripped open from neck to groin 

A jar containing a pickled penis 
a severed penis lying on the sink 
another severed penis in a lobster pot in the fridge 
two 50 gallon garbage cans filled with rotting torsos"
