BLOODY BLOODED


BLOODY BLOODED
This rocking and rolling
Turning
Churning
Blood curdling feeling
Cramming this brain
Showering
Raining
Falling
Spilling
Over and over
Around this head
Searing
Shooting
Stabbing
Agonizing
Pain
The blood congealing
Setting
Thickening
Solidifying
Coagulating
Dripping down this neck
Red
Bloodshot
Flaming hot
Like a blazing fire
Fierce
Intense
This has to go
Which way to go
So heavy a load
It has to be off loaded
Clean out the fire
The blood curdling fire
Let it burn to ashes elsewhere
Not on this head or brain
Lighten the load
Lighten the load
