Peace

Inspiration: This book by Ellen Hopkins
Word: Crimson

nothingness 
takes every
part
of brain 

scorched eyes search for tranquility in life
but instead find a slim polished wedge

metal pierces through brown colored skin and 
crimson red dots
gather 
then run


down and 

pause
another stitch of young brown skin begins to unravel 
the unraveled skin allows for more 


crimson beads to 

trickle
into what becomes a puddle of 
scarlet droppings that resemble 

reassurance
consolation

Post for Sunday Jan 16th
