The Argument
Words cut sometimes.
Escaped from the cage,
We tear open the wounds-
Stigmata for amateurs.
Healing with a knife,
That which now bleeds freely,
In verbal violence.

Adrenaline speaks its ire-
In the guise of mocking ego.
We miss the point:
It’s not about being right,
But finding peace,
To stitch the pieces.

Time wrings out my bones
Pliable, melting to dust
I once believed in light
I once believed in you.
