Cutting and I
cutting and I, what a complicated relationship
secret upon secret, just a shirt sleeve away
my feelings engraved somewhere on paper white skin
so easily written, impossible to erase
I am a canvas, do not ask for the painting
“it’s a life long process,” says the painter
only cutters can interpret my masterpiece
yes, I am a writer
drenched in crimson
pouring out sentences like rain
onto paper white skin
and when it’s all said and done
i’ll do it one last time
and sign the page, in red
