Iggy Chuck
Swallowed by the waves 
that birthed me,
I shout at the moon
as angels with broken wings
drag me by my bleeding feet

The scars that mark my skin
are all shades of blue,
they carry stories I whisper
into the night winds
that sweep them back to me

The sleeping world crumbles
under the weight of my tongue,
acid words pouring 
from my blazing chest,
my breath sets the skies on fire

Swollen tissue, aching bone,
kings and queens watch me
walk over the line
that goes along their spines
and leads nowhere
and everywhere.
