how much trauma can fit
inside of you between the gaps
before your nerves begin to fail
and your ventricles collapse;
a leash pulling your thoughts
behind a barbed wire fence
a muzzle to control your words
as a last line of defense;
a defective, broken down body
stemmed from a tortured mind
equals an futile unfinished sculpture
with a hollowed out inside
