A Fragile Thing
Be it pain or
Pleasure
Each results in the muscle
Movement
Of dried eyes gazing back into pallid
Sockets
A shade of white comparable to
Eggshell
Cracked open to expose the negative
Space
Where the mind should have
Resided
Like a yolk inside a dark
Cavity
Shielded by flesh and
Bone
From the beatings of physical
Torment
But not from the radiation
Bathed in
During emotional
Turmoil
Pleasure
Each results in the muscle
Movement
Of dried eyes gazing back into pallid
Sockets
A shade of white comparable to
Eggshell
Cracked open to expose the negative
Space
Where the mind should have
Resided
Like a yolk inside a dark
Cavity
Shielded by flesh and
Bone
From the beatings of physical
Torment
But not from the radiation
Bathed in
During emotional
Turmoil
