If your mind is in the right place,
a wound that keeps dripping is just an annoyance.
Blood on my lips because I opened the beer bottle lighter style
with a cheap blue steal knife
that mistakenly snapped off the glass with the cap
and left edges that are sharper than they look.
I sipped anyway,
and now my top lip is bleeding like a geyser
but it doesn't hurt.
The only problem is someone else might see it and think I'm weird.
Which is the same **** problem as always,
except usually I don't actually bleed.
