I am at a loss for words. Why do I feel like a corpse Day in, day out? Today I am famished. Not with a hunger to be satiated with thought But with a candid urgency And a hankering for vengeance. I boil, I seeth. I teeter on the brink. I kiss with tongue And spit out my entrails. They say your ******* is just the end of your mouth, But that's common sense. Have you ever felt terror strike and shine All down your spine? Have you ever been unable to breathe?
Sometimes when it's cold outside And you blow cigarette smoke from your mouth You can't tell where the smoke ends And your chilled breath begins. This is what it's like to completely lose yourself. Where do I begin and, more importantly, Where do I end?
Am I just smoke on the end of your cigarette? Or am I the glowing ember?
