Sometimes I bleed nonsense,
Small scrapes seep
Lemon~flavored Jabberwocky'
Tonsillitis Ice Cream.
B~t deeper wounds bleed.beauty:
The lacerations that leav:e scars.
My muse disguised as a punct.ure,
The finished piece. as morphine.
Passersby gawks. and jaws drop
And I feel ~etter.
But I've seen my brothers
Ripped,ltke'Mercutio
And the blood pools ~n didactic shallows;
It's sad and pointless.
I hope I leave writhing

Shoutinguntit my lungs blow and

Ch6king on pureness.
