Benthos - As a Cordyceps

From your hunting thoughts
Gasping for the last breath
I emerge
Scorching

Pouring my spores on your kind
Tearing the flesh of your loved ones
With wrathful words

The roots enfold my trembling bones

Clearing my conscience
Eyes open

Screaming and blinded, evolving inside
Biological change
Biological growth
Your blood, your tears
Through grief, I evolve

From your hunting thoughts
Gasping for the last breath
Look around you
I'm everywhere

DNA consumed
Extirpate my ego
Rotten blood runs through
Oxidized veins

Oxidized veins

The day you chose fear over empathy
Marked my ascension
As a cordyceps, I am loathing

Pouring my spores on your kind
Tearing the flesh of your loved ones
With wrathful words

Screaming and blinded, evolving inside
Biological growth
