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"
