in a darkened place


stainless steel twin blades
flashing so seductively
here in my grasp
my gateway to the coveted scars
the scarlet salve
imagination incarnate

seductive blades
what shall their prey be?
I offer my hands
my hands!
for they are precious to me

sensuous slicing
I feel the blood
running through my fingers
into my mind
a soothing balm
to appease the fire
make temperate ashes

hush! I can do as I please
for it’s my hand
my scissors
my pain
only mine to feel
and bear
or heal

Oh My, tenderness felt here and reality. You can surely write.
