sorrow is as simple as a pin
penetrating a flesh
blood letting from a skin covering
pain is simple
it is in the infliction that
seeps to the marrow of the bone
not the inflection
the accent of the word not the intonation
or even the context of the suffering
sorrow is simple
pain is practical
but somehow to make it more dramatic
here i am
in this poetics
pain is a shark's teeth gnashing
over a slice of my flesh
my legs kicking out of the water
