Beyond the Damage Done
Looking upon smooth skin
Astounding how seamless
This puppet is in appearance
Though I know the secrets mending behind thin folds
A patchwork of stitches
Running along the body like a wild river
In scar tissue there is so much strength
A mouthful of blood
The crazed smile of realization that there is nothing left to be
broken
Eyes blackening towards my attackers
“Come get more of me!”
Piercing into the confrontation
Like teeth into soft, raw meat

Curious choice of image.
As long as it means something to you
then i guess it doesn\'t matter that the reader
cannot connect the image to the write.
You could enlighten me if you so wish

thanks for the read
the poem was inspired by the word "seamless"
and I pictured a replicant to go with the poem, I googled "android woman" and that was on the first page

interesting.
It is at times hard to see with the same eyes
as the artist.
Thank you kindly for the connection
