The machine turns on...
the circular blade picks up speed...
a glimmer catches my eye...
so simple yet so destructive...
i can't exscape its mystery...
i reach forward to touch it...
the tips of my fingers are now gone...
the pain is emense...
yet i still cannot look away...
i am drawn into it...
like some magnetic force...
i reach forward once more...
the essense of life flowing free...
the same results...
do i enjoy ther pain?
do i hate myself that much?
there is an answer...
in the glimmer that catches my eye.

Don't forget your goggles.

There IS an answer here.

Wow, I felt drawn into the blade as you spoke of it. Good work, B.D.
