carnal lightening reaped my brain in verves of sickled fever, emotion sloughing clean my tortured psyche. and who was I to challenge this narcotic self ablution – yet, what of my resolve to linger undisturbed in bias mental disarray? pathetic hypotheticals engorged my blood as nothing new. the tension burning scars within this manic unenlivened carcass grew until my hybrid self assaulted what was once unfailed but often wrong integrity as swifter than a scarlet blade my conscience was absconded to a heaven: peace, release, and ease. had I commanded armies to retreat? my palsied mind was finally worth its ****** ground and tissues thick with matters fed on independence lost among the strain. I must remember where I left my genius.
