me bleed out my colors
from red to yellow
to pale
left me standing frail
leaking out the air of this balloon
with a needle
then flying off like
a spotted beetle

You watched
as I was run over
after you dumped out this load
my innards laid out
on the side of the road

You watched
as the doctors draped
my broken body
placed me on a metal gurney
tagged my toe
sent me on my journey into hell
and you with head swelled flew
