My body is a taut wire thrumming like insect-wings shaking with encaged force I would like you to sweep-pick my skin's every nerve in a heartbeat

This is just something I felt like writing when I was at a metal concert. Sweep-picking is a guitar technique used primarily in metal music wherein "the guitarist plays single notes on consecutive strings with a 'sweeping' motion of the pick, while using the fretting hand to produce a specific series of notes that are fast and fluid in sound." (That's how Wikipedia describes it, anyway)
