Inside Out
If I could turn myself
inside out
this gut-full of fire
would engulf my world
in flaming destruction.
Frigid blood in my veins
inexplicably sustaining life,
would flood the landscape,
ushering in a new Ice Age.
This brain-heart-soul,
a jumble of emotions,
would be opened wide,
releasing an explosion of chaos.
