Detoxify
April 22nd, 2007 (Poetry)Anger and despair lurk in every corner
Creeping they crawl unexpected
My heart – tortured and wounded
Like an infections poison, they take over
Gangrene, it spreads through my blood
Coursing through its veins and arteries
Depression hits and I can feel it
It is all over my body like an ache that would not leave.
Then, like that it is gone
A snap of the fingers and a flick of the wrist
It’s gone, but the smell lingers
The smell of disdain is seeping out of my pores
I want, I need detoxification
A flush of the fluids will make me whole again
