S C E N A R I O :
there is   blood   under your nails
     from the curious lines
you   scratched   into your heart

the pain doesn’t bother you
   but the sight does

S C E N A R I O :*
there is a   hole   in your skin
     from the barely-healed scabs
you   pulled   off your knuckles

   you wanted to see
if there was anything underneath

    *
(what does it feel like to be alive again?)
