A cousin of Byron, rumored
mad, would race roaches
over his body, tapping them
with a straw to spur them.
Why?
Having vile vermin run
over him mirrored his
mind, or viewed through
a skewed lens of Christianity
he saw himself devoid
of grace and craved feeling
his sins. At least this way
he could control them.

This is really amazing. I'm just sitting here in silence, being amazed.
