Hollow

I was taken
As their sacrifice
Of body and blood
My being is offered up
I've been gutted like a fish
Carved like a beast for a feast
Prepared for a festival's main dish
Society has come for my presentation
But I am not worthy of this
Not worth the attention
For I am hollow
Am unclean
Unlike the one
Who had the blood
That redeemed me
