Pain smells like rotten, tastes like bitter and walks like its storming. It clings to your neck like a snake spitting venom, its tears like lightning eyes pleading like the thunder, screaming, terrorized by its own voice. It only dreams up nightmares, its beating heart speaks louder than a bass skin drum, kicking an bouncing, fighting, announcing: Save me, Hold me, Mother Help. And sometimes she does. Other times not. So the pain escalates, and lies there confused, soaked in a fountain of tears and a mountain of more troubles yet to climb.

Casting Calls
Pain smells like rotten, tastes like bitter and walks like its storming. It clings to your neck like a snake spitting venom, its tears like lightning eyes pleading like the thunder, screaming, terrorized by its own voice. It only dreams up nightmares, its beating heart speaks louder than a bass skin drum, kicking an bouncing, fighting, announcing: Save me, Hold me, Mother Help. And sometimes she does. Other times not. So the pain escalates, and lies there confused, soaked in a fountain of tears and a mountain of more troubles yet to climb.
