the numbness that surrounds me |
|
the numbness that surrounds me |
a rind |
waxy impenetrable |
keeps me |
from peeling away into the parts of myself |
silence and essence |
there is too much noise |
i am wrapped in ear-ringing |
|
fingernails rupture |
puncture to get inside |
clawing a way out a way in trapped in my skin |
callous forming over |
eardrum, mouth, nostril, fingertips |
