I can’t feel it, Unless it hurts. So please touch me, And make it hurt. Take your ice pick, And Tap Tap Tap Through my sphenoid. Root around in there, See how far you can go. Listen as my pleading goes from words, To sounds. A verbal gestaltzerfall. Do you ever wonder: Why I came back? Why I need you? All I can think about is, Whether or not you’ll hold me, When I start seizing.
