I actually found this poem in the front of "Four Past Midnight" by Stephen King. This poem I fell in love with the minute I read it, and it is by Stephen Crane. I hope you like it as much as I do :D


In the desert,
I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
Who, squatting upon the ground,
Held his heart in his hands,
And ate of it.

I said, "Is it good, friend?"
"It is bitter-bitter," he answered,
"But I like it
Because it is bitter,
And because it is my heart."

- Stephen Crane


Ahhh...I fell in love instantly lol. It is beautifully morbid, did you like it?
