————————
Paper thin and
pricked by thorns…
My skin rises like a kite
toward the spindly wires…
Shocks run through me
as I light up from
the inside out…
But this energy cleanses,
and the purge begins…
Racing from cable
to vein to back again…
till the pain has been replaced
by something newer…
and more fearful…
yet more real…
So, in this skinful bath
of agony…
a new me will rise…
And greet the day…
With hope…
And as much of a smile
as I can fit…
upon…
my tired…
face..
