White scars,
that sit in in the skin;
the dip of the collarbone
the graze beneath the right middle knuckle
stains in the eye
(reflected moments
hidden beneath blinks)
sometimes, occasionally,
it prickles
and the more it is scrubbed
the deeper it digs
until it’s so embedded
it creeps into bone
and crouches there
waiting.
writhing in blood
fused to the marrow
and then,
then you must break bones
if you want them out.
hmmmm
this is so aching! at least for me…
i could feel the things happenin within my own system..
shrills!
