i don't know whose
firsthand reaction to the sight
of me crawling is worse
that of the man
that asks how i am
as he backtracks
in baby steps
or
those of the rest who
due to oversight
or indifference
are unconsumed
and unconcerned
by and with
futile breaths
nonetheless
but i sure as hell know
the answer
doesn’t matter
so long as i stay sat
writing rhyming rants
to hold my skull’s fracture captive
and perhaps
so i can have it massacred
alongside its inner cats
their joint force task of making contact
with my meek heart also known as
the meager muscle
plasma-mad
in vein
and
collapsed.
