I'm in your sickly in-between,
Catching bullets in slow motion
For my metal meltdown correction collection
Infection, discretion, direction
And some other reason to re-build this
Little
Metronome
in my
Aching
Chest.
At which point, the author cut off
his invisible tongue
and returned to the silence
from whence he came.
