Where Memories Lie
Left,right,left,right.
Glued to my feet with blood,
Glued to my mind like cold ol time frozen to a wall.
Left,right,left,right.
Fuck the pain,
Fuck these frames.
Left,right,left,right.
Prey or pray,
Play or pass!
Left,right,left,right.
To live,
To fade.
Left,right,left,right.
Dog or dodge,
Die or fly.

I'm so sorry. That sounds horrific. If there is any consolation for pain, in the right circumstances it can fuel beautiful and powerful writing!

A powerful poem.
The first stanza especially strong.
Then "...dog and dodge, die or fly..."

Thank you for sure. If wondering, slavery is still legal in America under the 13th Amendment. I couldn't upload the image sorry will try again. It's abought me being slaved for no pay in a kitchen and forced under threat of being rolled up and put in the hole if I didn't go to work even tho I had an engrown toenail turning my big toe black and pussing with small boots on while having wide feet. Yes lots of pain and fear of losing my toe and even more. Every day I got home I would force my boots off just to see blood soaked and smelly socks Glued and rest you can read the poem again.
