sometimes my words hits a vein so much so the poem leaks blood I've forgiven everybody except the one who seared my soul so my pen pierces a vein an artery maybe diluting the ink which courses through it its all symbolic anyway don't'ja'know its better than writing on my skin in the vein it is hidden and I can act as if it doesn't damage me pretending hiding from truth words about broken dreams dreams can be purchased with a handfull of falling stars maybe a measure of self-respect are my words mightier than my traumatized backward glances

"except the one who seared my soul" as far as I am concerned Jerry, your words will always be mightier then the festered wound of ignorant people.

Have a wonderful year , Jer, love and hugs. xo
