Sour tentacles,
Steeped within the history of the cock,
Strands of the pulp dangle,
Displaying an oak like nation of tales,
Octopus arms lash wildly for leverage,
Like roots deeply wrapped around the testicles,
Sweet white ink pasteurised by the rot,
Sealed inside the bag for days,
Where cells can split more than once,
Your anus bears a thorax,
Hulked massive,
And whiffing of the colonic brown,
Its heart beats near your scrotum,
Sending shivers to the tip of…
…the manliness of natures,
You prod it,
It answers back,
By wrenching your testicles from their perch,
The doctor explains fascinated,
Tapping an ink housing,
Against his lip,
His desk,
And the monthly journals,
“That it has no known origin…
…That it has spliced with your scrotum…
…and that it defecates through your anus…”
You ask about the blockage,
That you haven’t passed brown notions,
In many days,
The fear and panic of your belly within cramp,
He just fills out a prescription…
…of bait hooks and calamari.

Why do people get Burroughs wrong?
There was more to the trick than just anuses, cocks and monsters.
Cheers,

To be honest this was inspired by Urotsukidoji - Legend Of The Overfiend and Lovecraft tales.
Any reference to Burroughs is an honour though, so thanks.
Saying that there is barely a reference to tentacles and squids in Naked Lunch or his further work???!?!?
Its more insects and homo-sex.
Try googling Tentacle Rape and you will see what I mean, you will be surprised by the work of Hokusai.

Ah, tentacle rape.
Not a huge anime devotee to be honest.
Body horror leaves me a bit bored after a while. Our bodies are alien countries without the induction of waving glutinous protuberances and bellowing demons.
Cocks and fannies and bumholes do kind of lose their fascination after a while, leaving only a kind of empty feeling.
Hence all the tentacles I imagine.
Cheers,
Mark

I'm getting back to me roots fella. Getting caught with that film and having to sit through it with me parents...we will never be 11 again.
"Our bodies are alien countries without the induction of waving glutinous protuberances and bellowing demons."
Have you looked into the biology of bacteria and parasites? The attoworlds and zytoworlds of physics? close to quantum physics. check it out. you too can see the tentacles at hand.

Only recently have they found that swearing in patients of global aphasia' (http://www.mindhacks.com/ October 11, 2007) have a higher emotional linking within neuroscience.
So my lower use of the words hold a real significance for me. believe me find the right kind if cunt (depending on sexuality, i dont want to stereotype anyone here.) and you can find such deeper meaning in yourself. give it a whirl.
