Perfect Organism

Drifting home

Engines low

Cold sleep in a cargo tow

Woken by a signal in the void

Static cuts the silent run

Company says turn around

Orders make them all succumb

Dead ground — broken steel

Open eggs in breathing rows

Hands reach in — the nightmare springs

Face locked tight — fate imposed

Acid burns through the skin

Every breach — numbers thin

Seal the decks — lock it tight

Crew reduced — one less life

Perfect organism — feeding the hive

Perfect organism — nothing left alive

Built for violence — no control

Perfect organism — crew expendable

Back in orbit — systems green

Shared relief — a borrowed scene

Sudden silence, breath turns red

Violence born — from the dead

Blood on metal — bone breaks free

Something screaming — born to feed

Acid burns through the skin

Every breach — numbers thin

Seal the decks — lock it tight

Crew reduced — one less life

Perfect organism — feeding the hive

Perfect organism — nothing left alive

Built for violence — no control

Perfect organism — crew expendable

“Priority one.”

“All other priorities rescinded.”

“I admire its purity.”

Perfect organism

Feeding the hive

Perfect organism

Only one survives

Perfect organism — feeding the hive

Perfect organism — only one survives

Built for violence — no control

Perfect organism — crew expendable

Engines flare

Pressure gone

Drifting horror

Cast beyond
