Parasite Poem by john tiong chunghoo

Parasite



i am a parasite
taking the best deal
of this body that extends
an arena for me to
zigzag through the world
sheltering me with its torsos
hair, skins, and whatever
so that nobody ever sees me

the heart alternates the world
between its beats and springs
a red sea with a million tributaries
where i take my refuge

when all has been traversed
and used up i just leave
and be another parasite on the sly
