05-16-05 8:45pm monday bone without marrow.
brittle. hollow. the heart does not beat. it sighs. quiet and humble as
it tallies how far it's wandered from. how near it's willing to be. writing
for the rhythm and the feel of the execution. as the words flow in a rapid
river. everntually they reach the cliff and plunge down over that waterfall edge.
and i go with them. all my sorrow. all my happiness. exploding in a fury
as it hits bottom once again. muscle without tension. weak. strand by strand
the words cut those threads. until every limb is useless. feeble and amputated
of every extremity. friends. lovers. people. i can't feel anything. love. hate.
shame. i no longer know what they mean. bone without marrow. hollow. echoing.
about to break. unwilling to heal.
