Scratch

[New]

Hardened arms mark victims of hubris
Penetrable yet invincible, the junkie's scam
Plunging past scars of insanity's wake
Well-informed of the torrent to come

A blade tsunami awash my nerves
A puppet whose strings are barbed wire
The enormity lost on an over-clocked mind
Equalling pain to inertia, a self-made sin

Excrement oozing from every pore
Reality's stench a dirge alive
Throbbing truth blinds overwhelmingly
Just wasn't the blind perfection I desgined

powerful, New, and painful to read because of the visceral imagery . I especially like a puppet with strings of barbed wire and "reality's stench a dirge alive".

Thank you. It's been a tough subject for me to approach until recently. It's good to get it out.
