timid size appearing
to give one greater chance
to conceal
curved so rolling wrist
cuts leave clean 2 inch
lines to split and
crack my skin in
reverence to emotion
reverence to emotion failed
and emotion hidden
and emotions festering
running red and green
an anti winter holiday
to be held in summers
heat wave and
emotional dearth
the wound like crevices
opened beneath subduction plates
the planets true center
less adulterated heat of
will bubbles forth red
froth to clean and
wash anew homes
forests lives and
emotion run raw
ragged from questions
asked and unasked
each as telling of my emotions death
as - a paring knife appeal
a wee bit too stream of conscious for me Nick...what is your underlying theme, what are you trying to convey to me because to be honest I am not seeing it.
ReplyDeleteaye I'm not so sure that I do not like it yet- however it is definitely a spree of the moment, write whats on my mind piece.
ReplyDeleteI also find on re-looking at it that there is some enjoyment for me in lines where the alliteration ties separate thoughts such as "emotion run *raw*
*ragged* from questions"
or(delayed alliteration here)
"Will bubbles *forth* red
*froth* to clean and"
where it seems the speed and stress of how i would read the piece could change where people presume certain nouns and adjectives apply their meanings.
