“This is my last time”,
I said 4 times ago
As I paint my brittle fingernails 
Red with blood

Reflective, honest; Another narrative carried within a modicum.

I like these.

Less is often more, well beyond any concept of 'averages'. As a writer, the most successful results often are yielded when we 'show, not tell'--When we put a 'head' in a 'space' and leave it to the reader fill in the details and minutia, We allow them to share in the prescribed experience in a language of their own, one that they deeply and intrinsically understand while conveying a directed sentiment. Good words.

something deeply hurting inside of you...speak with words...you do that well.
