Cut up my heart
Into the standard 4 oz. serving sizes
Put the slabs on plates
Throw on some BBQ sauce
And there you have it.
Chew on my grisly love.
Full of fat and blood and muscle
Then swallow it.
So that it travels to your stomach
And fills you up.
Don’t go hungry;
I’m here now.

Why does love have to be all sweet and gentle and dreamy? Can't it be raw and bloody and real?

I don't know what this says about me. Perhaps I'm a cannibal. Or perhaps this just reveals my subconscious craving for meat. Who knows?

And as for your interpretation...

One ought to hold on to one's heart, for if one loses that, the control of one's head is soon to follow.

I like it, I mean, it makes me not want to eat for a week... and I guess that it doesn't help that I'm watching Saw at the same time, but seems appropriate... to everything... it can be negative or positive, really. So I really like it. Very good job.

Haha thank you. And honestly, I'm not sure if it's negative or positive. I just kinda wrote it. So I guess it's up to interpretation. :)
and i'm glad it makes you not want to eat for a week! Well, I mean, I want you to eat. I'm just glad my imagery was effective. XD

Well, it makes sense. Why should marriage be such a gentle and kind ceremony. You are signing the rest of your life away, and you made the serious implications of that clear enough in your poem. I don't think it has anything to do with cannibalism or a craving for meat.

It reminds me of the blueberry picking poem. it's so out of the ordinary because people would not expect somehting so bloody to relate to love.

Now as for your subconscious, it could have something to do with it craving children that you are consciously planning on denying to your body, since that is a very bloody affair where you offer up your body to a parasite (as Tony would say) but the result is one of the strongest kinds of love that exists.

But don't pay any attention to my analysis.

Why wouldn't I pay attention to your analysis when you have the most interesting one?!? Lol. I like your interpretation.

Lol that's okay. I'm always up for aiding a procrastinator.
