to all intimate slaves

pledge your eyes to others.
pledge your vision to others.
pledge your breath to others.
pledge your nose to others.
pledge your smell to others.
pledge your smile to others.
pledge your heart to others.
pledge your thoughts to others.
pledge your nerves to others.
pledge your valiance to others*
pledge your sleep to others.
pledge your dreams to others.
pledge your life to others.
pledge your death to others,
at length if you can.
and die happily in the auspices of
the greater slaves who reign the land.
