an itch that didn’t go away was one I can’t ignore
this tingling feeling leaving traces on every centimeter that makes my body whole
when I try to ignore it only gets worse as if it wants me to shake this devastating annoyance that circles around my insides
it was as if maggots have found a way to make themselves invisible and start to chew their way from my flesh
all the way into where my circulatory system is located
and when it is done with this draining process it will began to create holes as a way to exit my inner skin and start leaving marks on my outer skin tissue that will torture me with agony
if I were to interfere with it or rather yet scratch it off
it will just do nothing to fix it

so I thought to myself
“maybe I should just rip it off..”
and so I tried to do that but it didn’t work
I used a sharp blade to try and slice the anguish of my skin
but it still left remnants that I can’t bear to look at again
I then try to use a butcher knife but the moment I try to press the steel blade on one of the maggots it chewed onto the steel
until there was nothing left but the handle
the only option I had left was to use fire
and so I did just that
I found a whole jug of gasoline from the garage
splashed it over my body
found a lighter and lit a match
and let the fire commence onto my body
the maggots started to scream with pain
as their unsymmetrical bodies started to melt
during that moment I felt a beautiful euphoria
even though I knew I was burning with the maggots too
but I was delighted that my sudden itch has been lifted away
