pain is a permanent marker unremovable like coffee stains on carpet undoable like stomach knots unalterable like bad surgery unwanted tattoos tell the truth reminder of pain imprints in flesh indelible ink writing on private parts ingrained in memory like ***** rings around a tub surgery scars reveal new skin entrenched in the brain pushed to the back of the mind pain recorded, hidden, collated, undeleted recycled every 14 days triggered by foul smell, bad tastes and bitter tea badly drawn with a pen pain is a permanent marker forever and binding

Pain is a Permanent Marker
pain is a permanent marker unremovable like coffee stains on carpet undoable like stomach knots unalterable like bad surgery unwanted tattoos tell the truth reminder of pain imprints in flesh indelible ink writing on private parts ingrained in memory like ***** rings around a tub surgery scars reveal new skin entrenched in the brain pushed to the back of the mind pain recorded, hidden, collated, undeleted recycled every 14 days triggered by foul smell, bad tastes and bitter tea badly drawn with a pen pain is a permanent marker forever and binding
