Blood takes to my brain:
Oxygen
And helps me remain
The Quivering wreck that I am.
It dribbles down my chin
When I cut myself shaving in front of the mirror
And drips down the sink
Into the cold, cold, cold, cold stone.
Rub into my wounds:
Earth and wood.
It's bitter and good -
Reminds me of being child.
I like to climb trees.
I used my hands and my feet,
It's a long way to fall and
If I do then I'll bleed
