Jarring. Grating. Bursting. Throbbing. Crying. Clawing. Grasping. A cacophony. A coffin. Blend. Dreary. Corrosive. Turning. Grinding. Drowning. Drowning. Drowning. Drowning.
Suffocating in endless.
Blinding. Defilement.
Swallow. Choke. Die.
Gather. Blood.
Solvent. Spill.
Digress.

touch
Bleed.
Slice into me. Carve into me.
Blind my eyes.
Blind my thoughts.
Think nothing.
Feel nothing.
Drive the knife further and deeper.
gouge
my eyes
Battered and broken.
Kick rocks and punch bruises.
Sear and tear, leave nothing left.
If I were to die it would be heaven on earth.
Rubies
Sunflowers in nature
always turn towards the light.
The dripping of water
trickles down
Seeping into the dry dirt.
I wave a hand through the grass,
little rubies jingling
and clinking
against my fingertips.
I hold them in my hands
little bursts of red against green.
I pop them in my mouth,
one by one.
