Mutable

I am mutable,
That's irrefutable.
I'm a million souls in a single skin,
And I can slough the skin I'm in,
Because I am transmutable.

I am insatiable,
And you're palatable.
I'll swallow you whole at the end of days,
If you can't make me mend my ways,
For I am inescapable.

I am rapacious,
and quite voracious.
I'll burn things for the hell of it,
And smear the wasted earth with shit,
But it won't be audacious.

I am ascendant.
And I'm resplendent.
I shed my skin, I ate you whole,
And from the earth I softly stole,
And I am unrepentant.
