Poetry

Choking on my words

they turn to ashes on my tongue

arsenic in my veins

acid in my tears

and water in my lungs

wrists bruised black

and lips stained red

necrotizing

paralyzing

thoughts inside me head.

Let the ether have me

return me to our Mother

I am earth and I am fire

I am wind and I am water

take me a p  a   r    t, remake me as another –

a creature, star, or tree

anything you please…

I just don’t want this poison

put back

inside

of me.

“and I could not allow my writing to reveal myself so bluntly.” writing does a good job of that, doesn’t it? sometimes it is for the best.. but not always. i, too, have become careful with my words and writing.
