Inflicting Wounds With or Without Words


The cut—
is deep
and jaggedly
expands outwards
(like a mushroom cloud
from an atomic bomb)


The heart—
pounds—thump-thump--thump-thump
as clots form
cling to frictions…


The wound—
slow heals
reflecting a scar
(seen and unseen)


The pain—
subsides
and dies into dullness


and time
is neither right, wrong or mediocre
and often it doesn’t heal   all   wounds.

Our heroes are revealed for all they are, the final flash of a dying star, for with this pen I do they mar, with hopes I leave ‘em all a scar.
