It moves ever so slightly thrusting deeper still . . . blood pooled puddled and sticky and I stare at it and don't even want to clean it up These hands bear the mark creases stained wrinkled and red bleeding like Jesus did Yet, when I hang my head in sorrow there it lie within my pale and shaking hands MY DEMISE |

"Without fear, there is no death"-Leo Tolstoy We all wonder on our demise especially after a lifetime of learning about how mortal other people are. This piece is very provoking which is good. Nice write. "I should have been a pair of ragged claws/ Scuttling over the floors of silent seas"-T.S. Eliot |

Forlorn with stigmata...You bleed out in this. "The shortest distance between two points is.....sometimes intolerable" |
