Maggots

Saw a photo on Rotten.com today, entitled "Wurms Man"... Of course, 'twas a rotting corpse, bloated & blackened, swollen beyond all recognition. Within his eye sockets & across his face, the cleaning crew was busily at work - maggots. Under all the decaying flesh, tho, the purity of white bone showed through. Clean, stark, the foundation of the flesh.

I used to have a problem w/maggots - couldn't even stand to look at them. Thinking about them made my flesh crawl. I do still think that if I ever had a major wound that started to develop gangrene & looked under the bandage to see medically-grown fly larvae crawling around on my body, I'd most likely go mad.
