Apostrophe, in the Rhetorical Sense

I'm slipping, stepping silently through mountains of air wind whipping this clay shod body earth and sod and stones to small to see I'm stuck, this pen wedged within my corpus callosum, not big enough to handle the task not up not snuff, doesn't have the stuff. I'm all. Honest, to the tip of each hair on my head cut and styled, and put into place; truth bubbling out from behind crimson painted lips; but so that I may not mince words, / there is nothing straight about me save the razor's edge / with which I detail my semantics, my words cut with conveniences / resilient as talcum powder you / we have so much to look forward to
