laughter stressed, shadowed, and slaughteredbloodbaths on blanketed - frost bitten wallsprowling Paralysis cripples perceptionintaking insanity: intrinsic draws
splattered across the blood - bloodied walls
My legs shiver
in intense confusion while
my eyes try a loop hole
to keep from showing signs
of weakness my soul
trembles in a desperate attempt
to show them that they are wrong
never censor the dirty words.
unleash the violet memories of
your violent childhood:
lilac frocks and pomegranite seeds
and leftover boo-boos
because sometimes
daddy couldn't see you
